Telluride, Colorado is a tiny town known for its many offerings of outdoor adventures, but it also holds stunning architectural treasures. A minimalist mansion, which is the polar opposite of the town’s quaint Victorian storefronts, has hit the market asking $16.9 million. Like West Creek Ranch, a $149 million Colorado estate currently for sale, this Simon and Hugh Jacobsen-designed marvel stands out for the harmony it strikes with its extensive natural surroundings.A masterwork in symmetry, the structure consists of ten near-identical, connected pavilions gathered around a circular driveway. Combined, these compartments contain four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 6,561 square feet of living space. Each pavilion boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and private patios, ensuring uninterrupted views of the 35-acre property and the Rocky Mountains.In contrast to the rugged beauty visible just outside, the home’s design is understated and clean. Limestone, glass, steel, and native stone blend the exterior with the natural landscape, while inside white walls and vaulted ceilings contribute to an airy vibe bolstered by large communal spaces and open floor plans. Tired of gathering in your run-of-the-mill family room? Try the hot tub or movie theater. Air-conditioned flooring is the icing on top of a mountain of exciting features.For more information on this Rocky escape, get in touch with Bill Fandel of Telluride Sotheby’s International Realty.
