My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Mountain Springs Ranch
Ideas for a Colorado Mountain Top home.
Photo
A second stair to go from the 2nd fl to the deck?
Q
Photo
Could be nice with steps off the deck that go to the wood fire pit.
Q
Photo
Something like this with nanawall and plenty of indoor / outdoor living.
Q
Photo
I would like an area on the deck for a hot tub and possibly a sauna, but of a totally different design than this. I want the wood tub that is refilled each use.
Q
Photo
I like the idea of a covered area on the deck, but concerned the roof line will block the view.
Q
Photo
Something like this.
Q
Photo
Very nice. May be too modern for the space, but a variant of this could be an option. Maybe angle the house to the east or west, rather than just have the nanawall pointed straight south toward Sopris.
Q
Photo
I like this large deck, which could have a dinner table in summer, seating, propane fire place. I think I like Trex, but all or part of it could be tile or stone. Depends on appearance, price, and compatibility with snow melt system.
Q
Photo
This is what I meant by post and cable barrier.
Q
Photo
The deck should be as large as the great room to give a real indoor/outdoor living feel. The deck might have a covered and uncovered area, and it might have a propane fire pit. It also might have a snow melt system.
Q
Photo
A nana-window at the kitchen could be nice.
Q
Photo
Just the great room in the middle could be a possibility. Master bedroom on second floor or off to the side?
Q
Photo
I like the green roof and would incorporate one if possible.
Q
Photo
I like this guard rail, although a simple post and cable could also be nice.
Q
Photo
I like the way this house is built into its environment. Would want the house to meld with its surroundings and be designed to fit the space.
Q
Photo
Main house with detached out bedrooms?
Q
Photo
Simple lines with covered walkways to out-buildings.
Q
Photo
I want a rainwater and graywater collection system. This tank looks great, although I was thinking of a buried plastic tank.
Q
Photo
I like the horizontal windows near the kitchen, but how to handle cabinets in our small space?
Q
Photo
I like the simplicity and serenity, but too church-like.
Q
Photo
Like the wall of windows with the bedroom off to the right. Probably too much though.
Q
Photo
Like the Zen-like quality.
Q
Photo
Instead of two story, could have a single story and use some of the 45 acres.
Q
Photo
Like the floor to ceiling windows on the 2nd fl master bedroom, with the runner for a large curtain?
Q
Photo
Need to have a "garage" for the mules and snowmobiles.
Q
Photo
Small, simple, functional.
Q
Photo
Looks good with indoor/outdoor living. Lots of windows.
Q
Photo
I like the organic look of the sloped roof, which might be good for desired rainwater collection system.
Q
Photo
I like the dramatic windows, but could be smaller, simplier, and functional.
Q
Photo
I like the "wall of windows" in addition to the Nanawall.
Q
Photo
I like the overhang of the roof over a little bit of the deck. I also like the "out-building" for guests.
Q
Photo
I like the floor to ceiling windows and clean lines.
Q
Photo
I like the large windows and high ceilings.
Q
Photo
HOA may require natural exterior colors of brown and green.
Q
Photo
I like the upstairs bedroom about 1/2 the size of the downstairs -- provides outdoor space for sitting, solar thermal collectors, and possibly a greenhouse.
Q
Photo
I like the deck with propane fire pit.
Q
Photo
Indoor/Outdoor living space opens onto a very large deck, like made from Trex.
Q
Photo
Like indoor/outdoor concept. Must have a Nanawall or equivalent.
Q

Photo
I like the separate wing for guests, instead of the separate buildings.
