The Home

The Bannockburn is a uniquely-designed ranch home that features amazing mountain views from multiple rooms. Situated on
two-and-a-half acres, this “rustic, industrial farmhouse” includes four bedrooms, four baths and an oversized four-car finished
garage, along with a whole-house stereo. The 12-foot tall main ceilings and bright open rooms, with the natural white oak
floors, immediately give the sense of home entertainment.

The unique butler bar connects to the gourmet kitchen, blending the ten-and-a-half foot granite-surface island with unique
gabion features. The spacious quartz counter for food prep, along with the rear windows for viewing the wildlife, are a bonus.
For eating spaces, along with the butler bar and island, there is a large dinette and large dining/flex room with oversized
windows overlooking the covered sun deck. The master suite features a rustic wood and iron-trimmed fireplace, a super shower
with gabion vanity accents, large mirrors, a makeup station and floor-to-ceiling tile. The master closet connects to the laundry,
featuring an eight-foot bench and cubby row, diamond plate tile flooring, plenty of cabinets and a desk with filing space.

The lower-level, iron and rusted metal fireplace with an exposed aggregate concrete floor enhance the natural industrial look.
The rec room and full galley leads to the walkout patio for a future barbecue, hot tub or firepit.

The Interior Design

The classicstyle trim and over-the-door transoms on the main level meld the past with the present. Soft grays and whites coupled with stark reds and blacks bring the home to life. Distinctive gabion features throughout the home, coupled with natural granite, white oak and alder woods, bring in the outdoors. Uniqueness, flow, design and superior quality are the hallmarks of this 2020 Parade home.
