Town of Crested Butte. Crested Butte, CO
Modern Victorian
Just two blocks east of the historic district, this home on Elk Avenue blends painted and natural wood elements with a prominent brick chimney, echoing the Town of Crested Butte’s unique Victorian mountain character. Inside, the adjacent kitchen and dining areas function as a cohesive gathering space, flowing naturally into a living room focused around a state-of-the-art, EPA-approved wood-burning fireplace.
With space at a premium, the first level was thoughtfully dropped two steps, allowing for five bedrooms and a media room/office across the second and third floors. The custom chef’s kitchen pairs traditional cabinetry and reclaimed beams with contemporary tile and fixtures—creating a space that is both timeless and highly functional.
