A limestone arch and a symmetrical facade announce Whitehaven long before you reach the door — classical order at the front that loosens into pool, porch, and garden at the rear. Built in honed limestone, slate, and zinc, it's a single-story ranch designed for a lifetime of gathering.

As the sun sets over the Roaring Fork Valley, the backyard becomes a front-row seat to the meadow and mountains beyond.

Whether gathering with friends on the terrace or unwinding in the hot tub, every space is designed to encourage a slower pace and a deeper connection to the landscape. Expansive terraces create room for entertaining, while the open lawn beyond offers space for children to run, explore, and play.

In this Boulder retreat, the kitchen balances warmth and scale through a carefully layered material palette. Exposed wood beams draw attention to the vaulted ceiling above, while dark cabinetry, stone surfaces, and steel accents ground the space below.

Designed to embrace its setting, Pikes View sits atop a forested ridge overlooking a historic Colorado valley, where every space is shaped by the surrounding landscape and the views beyond.

A bold, timeless floor plan paired with modern detailing creates a home that feels both grounded and contemporary. From the soaring hallways to the light-filled living spaces, each element was carefully considered to enhance daily life and create a sense of retreat.

More than a home, Pikes View is an oasis for its owners, celebrating the beauty of Colorado and the lifestyle that comes with it.

Designed to embrace life on the bay, this bedroom welcomes each day with natural light, water views, and easy access to the outdoors.
