Colorado ranch house provides a cozy getaway in an idyllic setting

rustic ranch house exterior

This dreamy stone-and-timber ranch house was designed by Jennifer M. Barvitski together with Studio West, nestled on 5,000 acres in Crested Butte, a historic mining town in Gunnison County, Colorado. The barn-inspired structure features square beams, reclaimed wood, a porch roof supported by rough posts, and rusted metal roofs. A covered porch at the front of the home helps to make it feel inviting.

Similar to a log home, the exterior design integrates square timbers with round logs. Step inside this cozy home to find a bedroom, bunkroom, and bathroom on the main level. On the upper level, an open concept living, dining, and kitchen area, along with sleeping quarters separated by a partition. Continue below to see more of this spectacular home…
