Built by a local builder with roots in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, the home draws inspiration from classic mountain architecture with circle-sawn ceilings and trim, reclaimed Kentucky horse-fence flooring, rough-sawn board-and-batten siding, and a striking reclaimed timber-frame entry. Elevated finishes throughout include custom cabinetry with quartz countertops, designer tile selections, and champagne gold fixtures that add warmth and sophistication. Designed for comfort and efficiency, the home features a sealed crawlspace system, spray foam and batt insulation, and Sierra Pacific windows and doors for year-round energy performance.
