Property details
About 2971 Fall River Rd
Welcome to an extraordinary property. This 3-acre estate was a historic hydroelectric plant meticulously refurbished into a stunning riverfront home. It is an unparalleled living experience with a touch of history and the comfort of modern luxury. Situated between the gently cascading Fall River and the Arapaho National Forest, privacy and ease are the hallmarks of this home. I-70 is less than 3 miles away creating the ideal location between Summit County ski resorts, Denver’s dining and entertainment amenities, and DIA. The centerpiece of a custom chef’s dream kitchen features a 12-foot Italian granite island, perfect for entertaining while cooking. A Wolf range and double ovens, and Sub Zero refrigeration and freezer appliances complete the essentials. A large pantry, copper prep sinks, coffee nook and custom cabinetry reflect the thoughtful design and beauty found throughout this home. The acid-stained concrete floors resemble rich leather and an efficient Russian stone fireplace and bread oven blend the cozy ambiance of the open floor plan. Tall barn doors open to a spacious outdoor patio with a dedicated propane line for the grill, an automatic whole house generator, and new hot tub. A fenced backyard with a large covered dog run is a pet’s dream. The primary suite features programmable skylights and adjoins a bonus room – an exercise room, den, or a second office. A detached heated studio adds versatility, offering a creative space for your imagination or easily converted back to a 2-car garage. Completing the outdoor amenities is a fairy play garden, picnic area, greenhouse, and extra storage. The 18-inch thick walls, custom Hunter Douglas electric blinds and radiant floor heat creates a luxurious and energy-efficient environment. This home is where history and modernity converge offering a Colorado lifestyle that is truly unique.
