You can't get closer to the slopes than this. Step off the deck and you're on the mountain, or just sit in the living room or stand at the stove and watch skiers go by all winter long. You'll never have to carry your skis through a parking lot or shove them in your car again. And it's not just for skiers. If you love the feel of the mountain but don't ski, you can watch it all happen from your own living room. Skiers and non-skiers alike will love this home. 141 Skiloft Road, known as Scrapwood Lodge, was taken down to the metal frame and completely rebuilt to handle real mountain winters. It sits slope-side at 5,320 feet, no compromises, and at this elevation summers stay cool and comfortable. Just open the windows and let the mountain breeze in. This iconic round house is a rare find. Homes like this don't come on the market often because they get passed down through generations. It's the only home on the road with a garage that's fully protected from the elements, a 2-car garage, plus metal floor decks designed to make snow removal easy instead of a chore. 2 bed, 2 bath, no HOA, panoramic 180-degree views year-round, two large decks, and it's being sold fully furnished and turnkey with bookings already in place.
