This modern mountain house, built for luxurious living by Brandon Architects in collaboration with Blackband Design, is situated in Victory Ranch, a private luxury resort community in Kamas, Utah, just outside Park City. Designed for clients returning to work with the architects for a second time, the residence is both an intimate retreat for two and a place that will welcome future generations.

From the street, the home reads as a quiet, single-story ranch. Yet as the site slopes away, the full expression of the house unfolds—terraces that step down toward expansive mountain views, generous gathering spaces, and a material palette that feels rooted to the land.

Modern mountain home front exterior at dusk with metal roof, illuminated entry, and hillside backdrop

Vertical cedar siding, artisanal stonework, and natural finishes bridge exterior and interior and give the house the feeling of something that has been here long enough to belong. Flexible programmatic zones allow the home to expand when the family is together.

Glass-walled front entry with steel-frame curtain wall, sculptural pendant, and mountain views beyond

The main level supports everyday living, while a daylight lower level offers a game and media lounge, a bar wrapped in shou sugi ban siding, and a bunk room scaled for college-age children and eventually grandchildren.

Floating steel staircase with wood treads, glass railing, and boucle armchairs in entryway

Natural beauty takes a bold stance in this hillside home, which features tumbled-stone fireplaces, Shou Sugi Ban wood paneling, and exquisite marble slabs that bring the best of the great outdoors into the elevated design.

This 8,190-square-foot home has room to spare for hosting family and friends, with expansive gathering spaces, an 8-bed bunk room (sleeps 16!), and an amazing rec room and bar loaded with fun and games for enjoyment year-round. The home includes five en-suite bedrooms plus two powder rooms, and can accommodate an overnight guest count of 30.

What We Love About This Home

What strikes us most about this home is how seamlessly it transitions from an intimate couple’s retreat into a full-on family compound. The 8-bed bunk room, game lounge, ski bar, and sunken fire pit spa aren’t afterthoughts; they feel completely intentional. We are also captivated by the way the lower level reads as its own distinct aesthetic from the rest of the house, with the shou sugi ban walls and moody palette creating an energy that’s both playful and sophisticated. The interplay between the tumbled-stone fireplaces and the floor-to-ceiling steel-frame glazing beautifully balances raw warmth with architectural precision.

Sliding and pocketing doors open the great room to a sequence of outdoor rooms: a sunken firepit integrated with a 12-person spa, a covered cabana with outdoor kitchen and fireplace, and a central hearth that anchors life on both sides of the glass. Every gesture honors the landscape and the rituals of gathering, reinforcing the idea of home as a place that grows with the people who inhabit it.
