Perched on 8.61 pristine acres atop Bachelor Gulch, Little Brave Lodge stands as one of the largest and most coveted ski-in/ski-out estates in the country. The only privately gated residence within Bachelor Gulch, with direct access to the Little Brave ski run, this exquisite mountain modern retreat offers a harmonious blend of privacy, luxury, and effortless outdoor living.
Inside, soaring ceilings and expansive windows frame the dramatic Gore Range while flooding the open-concept great room with a floor to ceiling fireplace, two dining areas, and gourmet kitchen with natural light. A butler's pantry enhances the home's entertaining capacity, while the in-home elevator connects all levels with ease. The main-level primary suite is a sanctuary in itself, featuring a spa-inspired bath, private office, and serene mountain views. Five additional en-suite guest bedrooms, plus a custom bunk room, including a themed children's room and sophisticated adult suites, offer space for multi-generational living.
Entertainment reigns supreme with a fully equipped theatre featuring both plush sofas and authentic cinema seating, a wine bar, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar. Outdoor living is equally captivating, with expansive terraces, a custom hot tub, and a fire pit perfect for gathering after a day on the slopes or trails.
Nearly $3M in recent upgrades complete this magnificent home, including a DaVinci roof, solar-powered heated driveway with security gate, theatre renovation, new boilers & AC chillers, and full water filtration.
Little Brave Lodge is more than a home, it's a legacy property designed to be cherished for generations.
