Perched in a serene ranch setting, “Elk Edge Retreat” captures sweeping views of elk, rolling hills, and breathtaking sunsets. Its minimalist architecture celebrates the surrounding landscape, blending native stone, charred wood cladding, warm wood floors, exposed beams, and subtle steel accents. Expansive glass walls and deep porches dissolve the boundary between inside and out, creating a seamless connection to nature. Signature touches, like custom leather-wrapped steel handles, add refined detail, while every design choice—from the driveway to the back patio—frames the stunning scenery.
The home’s heart is a great room and back porch anchored by twin board-formed concrete fireplaces, with the kitchen and a custom dining table strategically positioned for uninterrupted views. A side entry flows effortlessly to the primary suite wing or back porch, always keeping the landscape in focus. The primary suite delights with a live-edge floating table, floor-to-ceiling corner windows, and vistas of elk and a distant lake, while its adjoining bath features a freestanding tub and glass-enclosed shower overlooking the natural surroundings. Guest rooms and a bunk space prioritize privacy while maintaining easy access to the home’s central living areas.
Furnishings and materials throughout provide a soft contrast to the home’s architectural lines, with Stephen Kenn sofas in the great room serving as an early anchor for the design palette. Natural stone surfaces, charred wood walls, blackened steel elements, and bright kitchen countertops offer a balanced mix of warmth and contrast. Outside, a simple rectangular pool extends the home’s connection to the landscape, completing a retreat that is as harmonious and contemplative as it is strikingly modern.
