The Space:
Timberline Trail is a beautifully crafted Castle Glen home built around one thing: the view. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac with level parking, the panoramic vistas of the valley and Gold Mountain are visible from nearly every room.
The main level features an open-concept floor plan with a gourmet kitchen, large living area, and a spacious master suite — all opening onto an expansive deck where the views take center stage. Downstairs, a large game room with its own sprawling deck offers a second gathering space, with three additional bedrooms and Jack & Jill en suite bathrooms just off the room. Three of the four bedrooms share those same stunning views.
Outside, the hot tub, fire pit, and BBQ make the perfect setup for evening entertaining after a day on the slopes or trails.
