They don’t make them like this anymore! Gorgeous Angel Fire home sits up in the aspens and pines within the sought-after Vail Loop neighborhood. A perfect blend of Mountain meets Southwest, the interior details are unmatched! Large flagstones blanket the floors, along with stone window sills throughout, custom wood doors, and exposed window and door bucks. Enter the home through a long wood portico, into the large great room with vaulted tongue and groove ceilings. The light filled room offers the concept of open living; with the kitchen, a living room, family room, and dining area. The kitchen is well equipped with a large bar height island, and the cozy living room has a large Kiva style fireplace with built in niches for firewood and additional seating. The family room/great room area, is met with a wall of sun flooded windows, a view of woods and mountains, and has French doors leading to the outdoor covered patio. The patio is a great place to sip coffee, watch the sunrise, grill, or scout wildlife! The main home includes three large bedrooms. The unusually large sized Master Bedroom with vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, is complete with its own kiva style fireplace with bancos and built-in seating. The ensuite bathroom has a jetted tub, walk-in shower and walk-in closet. This room is situated opposite the other two guest bedrooms for optimum privacy. The two large guest bedrooms both have ensuite bathrooms and walk-in closets. Both rooms are light filled, with high vaulted ceilings and pretty views of the outdoors. The massive dream three-car garage sits to the side of the home. It has an abundance of room for vehicles, mountain toys and storage, not to mention that it is heated! Hard to believe that on top of all of this, a spacious guest house, sits above the garage. At approx. 700 square feet, this area includes a full kitchen, full bath, walk-in closet and large open living space with tongue and groove vaulted ceilings! There is also a large separate room, currently used as a bedroom. This wonderful space includes a kiva style fireplace and a breakfast area. The same flagstone floors and high-end details are to be found in this space as well. Three sets of French doors, lead to the wraparound deck facing the woods and nature. The guest house deck also features a quaint bridge with walk-way access to the flagstone path and gorgeous stone fire-pit area, a fabulous added feature to any mountain home. Call it a studio, office, guest house, bunk home, or even a rental, this kind of space separate from the home, is highly unusual in Angel Fire. This one-of-a-kind, custom built Tim Cottam home with three fireplaces, tons of open well-lit space, custom details, acreage, and plenty of privacy – not to mention close proximity to ski resort and town, is an absolute RARITY.
