Designed for a family of passionate downhill skiers, this modern Vermont ski home, nestled in the mountains and designed by Cushman Design Group, centers on an active, wellness-focused lifestyle and a love of the outdoors. The L-shaped home faces the ski slopes, with the entry at its center.

The plan follows the idea of prospect and refuge: open views in some rooms, a feeling of shelter in others. Living spaces open toward the mountain, while private rooms turn toward the woods. Inside, natural materials, pattern, color, and art bring the owners’ personality into the rooms, and details like flush baseboards show the level of craftsmanship. The home is shaped as much by its setting as by the way its owners live. Continue below to see the rest of this amazing home…

What We Love About This Home

This Vermont ski home gives the family big mountain views and quiet, sheltered rooms in equal measure. Stone, cedar, walnut, and oak are offset by bold pattern and art, especially the oversized skier painting. The sauna, gym, bunk room, and dog wash make it a hardworking home base for the family.
