Property Description

The Ditto House, a truly rare property with exceptional architectural pedigree, original integrity, and over two private acres with mountain views. Designed by prominent architect James Ream, who began his career working in the office of Eero Saarinen before moving to Denver to work with William Muchow and later establishing his own practice. You enter the property from a bridge adjacent to the garage that mirrors the same architectural details as the home. In Japan, entering a home from a bridge represents a symbolic boundary, linking the human realm to the natural world, while facilitating a calm, and contemplative, everyday entrance.As you approach, colorful built-in awnings interact with the homes floor-to-ceiling glass. Stained board-and-batten cedar siding wraps the exterior and continues inside, creating visual continuity. A walnut-paneled spiral staircase serves as a sculptural focal point, adding both architectural drama and a playful design element. The main living space is anchored by a central fireplace and surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glazing and sliding glass doors that integrate the indoors with the landscape. The original kitchen is beautifully crafted, complete with distinctive leather pulls. A spacious dining area or flexible den offers additional built-ins and warmth from the combination of cedar, walnut, and glass. The primary suite features a loft area with doors that can be opened or closed to define the private space as desired. It features two closet areas and access to a private upper deck with panoramic mountain views. The spiral staircase continues into the upstairs bathroom, creating a striking architectural detail. The walk-out basement includes a large flexible living space and half bath. A separate artist studio with radiant heat provides an ideal space for creative work, a workshop, or additional flex use. Opportunities to own a home with this level of architectural significance, privacy, and land are exceptionally rare.
