An Eclectic Hideaway

Inspired by worldly ventures and past memories our clients experienced around the world and in Colorado, “An Eclectic Hideaway” is a family friendly extended living space with hidden nooks and areas of interest. The space includes a Bali inspired spa, pool, and water feature combination, a rustic fire pit, and an upper level vegetable garden. Slab stairs ascend to the upper vegetable garden where a meandering path flows to a hammock hangout area for the ultimate destination for relaxation.
Project Year: 2017
Project Cost: $200,001 - $500,000
Country: United States

The view from the kitchen and living room are now framed by trees, boulder outcroppings, flowering shrubs and perennials drawing you out to use the spa and fire pit.
