This lovely Mountain Modern Home in Littleton, Colorado is perched at the top of a hill, allowing for beautiful views of Chatfield Reservoir and the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. The pink and orange sunsets viewed from the front of this home are breathtaking. Our team custom designed the large pivoting front door and sized it at an impressive 5' x 9' to fit properly with the scale of this expansive home. We thoughtfully selected the streamlined rustic exterior materials and the sleek black framed windows to complement the home's modern exterior architecture. Wild grasses and native plantings, selected by the landscape architect, complete the exterior. Our team worked closely with the builder and the landscape architect to create a cohesive mix of stunning native materials and finishes. Stone retaining walls allow for a charming walk-out basement patio on the side of the home. The lower-level patio area connects to the upper backyard pool area with a custom iron spiral staircase. The lower-level patio features an inviting seating area that looks as if it was plucked directly from the Italian countryside. A round stone firepit in the middle of this seating area provides warmth and ambiance on chilly nights.
The custom designed pivot door of this home's foyer is a showstopper. The 5' x 9' wood front door and sidelights blend seamlessly with the adjacent staircase. A round marble foyer table provides an entry focal point, while round ottomans beneath the table provide a convenient place the remove snowy boots before entering the rest of the home. The modern sleek staircase in this home serves as the common thread that connects the three separate floors. The architecturally significant staircase features "floating treads" and sleek glass and metal railing. Our team thoughtfully selected the staircase details and materials to seamlessly marry the modern exterior of the home with the interior. A striking multi-pendant chandelier is the eye-catching focal point of the stairwell on the main and upper levels of the home. The positions of each hand-blown glass pendant were carefully placed to cascade down the stairwell in a dramatic fashion. The elevator next to the staircase (not shown) provides ease in carrying groceries or laundry, as an alternative to using the stairs.

The expansive living room features soaring 22' ceilings and exposed structural steel beams, along with a custom designed slate fireplace wall. Our team designed the massive custom fireplace wall and selected the oversized black metal chandelier to compliment the grand scale of this space. Large scale windows highlight the mountain views of this home's terraced backyard. The living room features a large comfortable sectional sofa, an 80" TV, two oversized swivel chairs, and a grouping of four cocktail tables in the center. Neutral colors provide a soothing palette and durable fabrics were selected for this active family with pets. The living room flows seamlessly into the kitchen and breakfast areas and provides the ideal open concept space for entertaining. On the opposite side of the room, the home's open staircase and architectural entry door balance the expansive space.Â
The modern kitchen and scullery in this home has it all! Our team custom designed the sleek custom cabinetry to compliment the luxury suite of appliances. The luxury appliances in the kitchen and the scullery include-- a full height wine column, refrigerator and freezer columns, an ice maker, double ovens, a warming drawer, two dishwashers, a 48" gas rangetop, a microwave drawer, a beverage fridge, an under-counter microwave and a wine dispenser center. The kitchen and scullery also feature two under-mount sinks, touch faucets, and an instant hot water faucet. The dark chocolate cabinets were designed to function without hardware to provide the streamlined look that we were after in this modern space. We created the channeled wood range hood to mimic the channeled fireplace wall design. Oversized marble-look porcelain slabs cover the walls and island in this expansive kitchen. The custom two-tier waterfall island features a wood bar top counter over a porcelain waterfall countertop. Our team encountered a particularly difficult challenge when designing the island. The architect had placed the AC air intake on the back of the island and the last thing that our design team wanted on the back of the island facing the living room was a large AC grille! So, we designed a "slot" all the way across the back of the island at the knee space to hide the AC air intake. The air intake is actually underneath the strip of porcelain that you see on the back of the island next to the barstools. This was the perfect marriage of function and style and we were thrilled with the sleek solution to this problem. Finally, we designed a custom spot in the corner of the kitchen with open shelves and built in appliances, specifically to house the owner's wine dispenser station and barware. The finishing touches on this beautiful sleek kitchen include geometric light fixtures and custom swivel barstools.
The lovely dining area in this home is directly off of the kitchen area. The cascading pendant light features hand-blown glass raindrops that glisten in the sunlight. The sloped ceiling and architectural windows highlight the stunning view of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and an award-winning golf course. Terraced walls shield the lap pool from view of the golfers. The streamlined dining table and chairs provide a comfortable spot to take in the beautiful panoramic views.
The modern windows of this home office frame the stunning views perfectly. Blue skies and the mountains in the distance, along with views of nearby Chatfield Reservoir, provide a work-from-home respite from the busy city. Comfortable velvet swivel chairs are perfectly placed for visiting with the desk area or for turning around to take in the beautiful views. A floating desk anchors the room, while large scale artwork and a patterned rug add texture. The enclosed credenza provides a place to hide the printer and much needed office essentials, while a tall bookcase on the opposite side of the room (not shown) provides additional storage. A golden brushed metal chandelier and tall gold credenza lamps finish off the room beautifully.
This expansive home features two powder baths. The sleek and elegant main-level powder bath features metallic cork wallpaper and a crystal pendant chandelier, adding an elevated aesthetic to the space. The asymmetrical design adds an unexpected surprise for guests. A waterfall porcelain marble-look countertop and a dark wood floating vanity cabinet complete the space.
The primary bedroom suite in this mountain modern home is the picture of comfort and luxury. The striking wallpaper was selected to represent the textures of a rocky mountain's layers when it is split into. The earthy colors in the wallpaper--blue grays, rusts, tans and creams--make up the restful color scheme of the room. Textural bedding and upholstery fabrics add warmth and interest. The upholstered channel-back bed is flanked with woven sisal nightstands and substantial alabaster bedside lamps. On the opposite side of the room, a velvet swivel chair and oversized artwork add additional color and warmth. The home's striking windows feature remote control privacy shades to block out light for sleeping. The stone disk chandelier repeats the alabaster element in the room and adds a finishing touch of elegance to this inviting suite.
This modern primary bath is a study in texture and contrast. The textured porcelain walls behind the vanity and freestanding tub add interest and contrast with the window wall's dark charcoal cork wallpaper. Large format limestone floors contrast beautifully against the light wood vanity. The porcelain countertop waterfalls over the vanity front to add a touch of modern drama and the geometric light fixtures add a visual punch. The 70" tall, angled frame mirrors add height and draw the eye up to the 10' ceiling. The textural tile is repeated again in the horizontal shower niche to tie all areas of the bathroom together. The shower features dual shower heads and a rain shower, along with body sprays to ease tired muscles. The modern angled soaking tub and bidet toilet round of the luxury features in this show-stopping primary bath.
The serene guest suite in this lovely home has breathtaking views from the third floor. Blue skies abound and on a clear day the Denver skyline is visible. The lake that is visible from the windows is Chatfield Reservoir, that is often dotted with sailboats during the summer months. This comfortable suite boasts an upholstered king-sized bed with luxury linens, a full-sized dresser and a swivel chair for reading or taking in the beautiful views. The opposite side of the room features an on-suite bar with a wine refrigerator, sink and a coffee center. The adjoining bath features a jetted shower and a stylish floating vanity. This guest suite was designed to double as a second primary suite for the home, should the need ever arise.
The walk-out basement in this beautiful home features a large gameroom complete with modern seating, a large screen TV, a shuffleboard table, a full-sized pool table and a full kitchenette. The adjoining walk-out patio features a spiral staircase connecting the upper backyard and the lower side yard. The patio area has four comfortable swivel chairs surrounding a round firepit and an outdoor dining table and chairs. In the gameroom, swivel chairs allow for conversing, watching TV or for turning to view the game at the pool table. Modern artwork and a contrasting navy accent wall add a touch of sophistication to the fun space.
The basement level of his home features a modern home gym. An entire framed wall of mirrors gives the illusion that the space is much larger. Two industrial fans provide air circulation and modern style. A cushioned floor adds an extra layer of comfort, while a ballet bar and a wall mounted TV add additional function to the space. Around the corner (not shown) is a wall mounted water bottle filler that is convenient for workouts. Large scale artwork adds color to the space.
This basement level laundry room is one of two laundry rooms in this home. The basement level laundry is next to the two teenage boys' bedrooms, and it gets lots of use with football uniforms and ski clothes to wash! The fun blue cabinets add a modern touch and reflect the color scheme of the nearby gameroom. Large artwork and tiled subway walls add interest and texture, while limestone floors and concrete-look quartz countertops provide durability.
This modern teenage boy's room is the perfect picture of his personality. His love of music is evident by the guitars and record player that are proudly displayed. Our design team took this vision further by incorporating a modern upholstered king-sized wall bed, guitar artwork, geometric linens and sleek hanging pendants on each side of the bed. A swivel chair in the corner provides a comfortable spot for him to play the guitar and to swivel to face the mountain views if he wishes. A modern desk and computer on the opposite side of the room (not pictured) allow a spot for gaming or for completing homework. Washable linens and a soft textured rug complete the room. The adjoining on-suite bathroom features gray textured tile and acrylic guitar artwork to complete the music themed suite.
This expansive home features two bedrooms for active teen boys. This bedroom features a stone-clad light well that lets in natural light from the main level above, dressed with a blackout window shade for sleeping. The masculine room features a comfortable king-sized bed with washable linens, a leather corner chair and ottoman, and a desk area to provide the perfect spot for this teen to relax or to get a little homework done. The accent wall behind the bed features a wood-grain textured wallpaper for added interest. The neutral tones and materials carry over into the adjoining bathroom.
This teen boy's bathroom is both masculine and modern. Wood-look tile creates an interesting pattern in the shower, while matte black hardware and dark wood cabinets carry out the masculine theme. A floating vanity makes the room appear slightly larger. Limestone tile floors and a durable quartz countertop provide ease in maintenance. A map of Denver hanging over the towel bar adds a bit of local history and character.
