Tenderfoot House represent the highest level of green building design and construction in the high-country of the Rocky Mountains - Summit County, Colorado.  Located in the historic town of Breckenridge, these ski-in / ski-out homes are ideal for local living, a family get-away or an incredible investment property. 

 

The Residences at Tenderfoot House consist of two luxury, ski-in/ski-out, 4 bedroom/3 bathroom, single-family residences on the slopes of Breckenridge Ski Resort. The tried-and-true real estate maxim “Location. Location. Location.” says it all regarding the significance of the surroundings of this development. Not only is this setting ideal for year-round recreation, and situated in the idyllic ski-town of Breckenridge, but the stunning, ‘million-dollar views’ of the entire Breckenridge Ski Resort are dazzling from behind the 20 feet of high-tech glass and spacious decks on the front elevations of the residences.

These custom homes have been meticulously designed both architecturally, by aMa Architecture, as well as through interior design consulting form world-renowned Atlas Galleries of Chicago, to take advantage of all that this setting offers, while utilizing the best practices of building science to ensure incredible efficiency, highly-elevated level of comfort, superior durability, and resonant mountain aesthetics.

The open plan on the main-level includes kitchen, dining and living space featuring a spacious gourmet kitchen with ample granite counter-top space, custom glass-tile back-splash, stainless steel floating range-hood and appliances and European cabinets. The living room features a stone wall fireplace and abundant glass doors and windows opening up to extensive views of the slopes of Breckenridge.
