Welcome to the SUMMIT CHALET! Tangent to the ski area boundary and to over one million acres of public lands, the SUMMIT CHALET offers primo ski access, eye-popping panoramas and a cozy retreat at the top of the Summit subdivision in Mt. Crested Butte, Colorado. The ski-in access to the SUMMIT CHALET is direct from the Lower Championship ski trail, which is served by the four-person WestWall and the Silver Queen Express lifts. The ski-out access is a gentle descent back to Lower Championship and the WestWall lift, or an easy traverse to the Rustler’s Gulch trail feeding directly to the base area. Access to and from the summer trail network is also right out the back door. Experience the ease of the best-in-class ski access at one of our many OPEN HOUSES IN MARCH (March 11, 13, 15, 18, 22, 29). The views from the SUMMIT CHALET are truly jaw-dropping. Whetstone, Carbon, Axtell, Emmons, Purple, Gothic, Belleview, Whiterock, and of course Crested Butte are some of the prominent mountains defining the “skyline” surrounding the SUMMIT CHALET. You have a front row seat to breathtaking sunsets every evening framed by the majesty of these 12,000-foot peaks. The SUMMIT CHALET continues to excite your emotions from the inside of the home. The first thing you appreciate is how the architectural design perfectly captures the spectacular mountain views from every room, especially from the main level great room and primary suite both with adjoining extensive wrap-around decks. Next, the impressive craftmanship of the log structure is inescapable. Marvel at the massive log posts and beams supporting the vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling as well as the custom split log, open tread stairways. The living, dining and kitchen areas are ideal for entertaining flowing from one to another with the beckoning vistas and starry nights setting the ambiance. Each of the three bedrooms boast ensuite bathrooms. The primary suite pampers you with unobstructed views and a spa-like bathroom with a double-headed steam shower, two-person jacuzzi tub with waterfall tub filler and a generous walk-in closet. The lofted office overlooking the great room has a wet bar and access to the private hot tub deck facing the Crested Butte Mountain. The dedicated ski room welcomes skiers, bikers and hikers after an exhilarating day on the trail and serves as a practical airlock to help manage the fresh mountain temperatures. Finally, the ginormous garage is heated and houses multiple vehicles, toys and tools. With more than 1,000 square feet and two entry points into the main house, the garage offers the opportunity to convert the back portion into a media/bonus room complementing the lower bedroom suites. Perhaps the most unique amenity is the surprising privacy of this top-of-the-Summit location.
