This modern organic architecture home, known as the Elkridge, takes its inspiration from the ridges of the Foothills and Rockies where the majestic elk roam. The angles of this home follow the land contours and maximize the views of the sky, the Rockies, the Sheep River Valley, and the surrounding undisturbed native vegetation. Welcome into this stunning home and find yourself under a custom foyer light featuring Orion and a waterfall feature. Moving into the chef’s kitchen you have a gas range, built in fridge and freezer combo and butler’s pantry with a double wall oven and coffee station. Next to the kitchen is the dining room with a beautiful view looking over your land and attaches to the deck with a built in BBQ. This concrete deck also attaches to the convenient upstairs office. Watch the ever-changing cloud formations through expansive windows in the stunning living room, as weather systems and storm clouds move through. Continue through the library to the primary bedroom where you can wake up to rose painted mountains at sunrise or enjoy a glass of wine while watching spectacular mountain sunsets on the private balcony. This bedroom comes with a 2-sided feature fireplace, spacious 6 piece ensuite, and dream walk in closet which leads to the open laundry room with tons of cabinets for storage. Next is the half bath which follows into the mudroom featuring 2 walk in closets as well as built in cabinetry. Each stall in the huge triple garage has a center drain for easy cleanup. Heading downstairs to the illegal suite you have a bedroom with a 4 piece ensuite plus another 2 bedrooms and 4 piece bathroom, laundry area, kitchen ready to be set up, and a family room to relax to the sound of birds singing and the movement of abundant wildlife. Moving to the other half of the basement you’ll find a half bath, bar and gym areas, den/golf room, and an expansive living room with a wet bar to finish off this level. You won’t find a better location to enjoy the changing of the seasons: winter snow on the mountains and hoar frost on the trees, and the spring and summer profusion of native Foothill’s wildflowers. Delight the taste buds with wild raspberries, saskatoons, and gooseberries, and bask in the warmth of the autumn painting of aspen and native shrubs. This private natural gem is only minutes from Okotoks and a short drive to the mountains.
