969 Skyland Drive
Crested Butte, CO 81224
969 Skyland Drive is an extraordinary legacy property offering some of the most breathtaking views in Crested Butte. Perfectly positioned on Lake Grant within the prestigious Skyland community, this remarkable mountain retreat overlooks the town of Crested Butte, surrounding peaks, and the entire Divide. Offered at $6,950,000, the home also presents the rare opportunity for a Club membership to transfer with the sale, allowing a buyer to bypass the current waiting list. Custom built by Holbrook & Smith and completed in 2009, the residence encompasses 5,563 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space blending mountain elegance, handcrafted artistry, and exceptional entertaining. The main level features an open-concept great room with soaring 30-foot beamed ceilings, cherry wood flooring, architectural arches, a see-through fireplace, expansive dining area, gourmet kitchen, mudroom/laundry, powder room, and a luxurious primary suite with dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath. Designed for entertaining and functionality, the kitchen includes a 48-inch Wolf range, dual sinks, dual dishwashers, warming drawer, wine cooler, custom vent chimney, and integrated television. The walk-out lower level offers three private king guest suites with en-suite baths, a secondary living area inspired by Santa Fe architecture, full wet bar, additional laundry and refrigerator, and direct outdoor access. Rich character defines the space with hand-carved corbels, a Kiva fireplace, handcrafted copper lighting, ceramic tile floors, and artistic details throughout. Upstairs, the home offers an expansive loft, bunk room with two queen beds, full bath, walk-in closet, workout/flex space, and two office spaces, creating a versatile retreat for guests, remote work, and extended family stays. Every detail was intentionally curated. Massive beetle-kill timber beams, handcrafted chandeliers, arched architectural elements, custom fireplace mantels, and distinctive deck railings contribute to the home’s timeless mountain aesthetic. A built-in Sonos sound system extends throughout the home and outdoor decks, while seven decks and porches maximize the spectacular setting and panoramic views. Designed with entertaining in mind, the elevated back deck includes secure gated access for children and large gathering areas for family and friends. An exterior stairway connects the upper and lower outdoor living spaces, creating exceptional flow for gatherings. A covered grilling deck with both a smoker and gas grill allows for year-round outdoor cooking, while the outdoor firepit creates the perfect setting to enjoy Crested Butte evenings beneath the stars. The oversized two-car garage includes a dog wash station with hot and cold water and ample room for recreational gear and equipment. The home also features a roof lightning protection system and valley and eave electric heaters designed to prevent ice dams. Impressively, the roof has never required snow shoveling and has never experienced ice dams. Adding to the home’s uniqueness, acclaimed sculptor Rosalind Cook is including several significant limited-edition bronze sculptures with the sale. Intentionally commissioned and placed within the architecture of the residence, these collectible works further enhance the home’s artistic character. 969 Skyland Drive is a one-of-a-kind Crested Butte retreat combining unmatched views, timeless craftsmanship, artistic character, and immediate access to the premier lifestyle and amenities of Skyland and The Club at Crested Butte.
