Nestled along a forest ravine known as Bear Valley,  a contemporary family ski retreat on the gentle slopes of Titus Mountain Ski Center. This cedar-clad, ski-in/ski-out residence features elevated living spaces with expansive forest views through large windows, inspired by COOKFOX Architects' sustainable approach of blending architecture with natural landscapes.Clad in blackened cedar, the home's design combines Adirondack lodge-inspired details with a modern profile. Wooden slats on the ski rack, entry porch, and balcony railings are etched with ski trail markings, while clear-coated cedar brightens eaves and porticos. Inside, lightly stained cedar walls and ceilings in the living room and kitchen add warm wood-grain texture—a modern nod to classic woodland cabins.The main entry opens into the first floor, the heart of the home. Both spacious and intimate, this cedar-clad room has a double-height pitched ceiling and large windows that reveal tranquil forest views. A central kitchen with a large island divides the area between the living room and dining space. Hallways on each side lead to the central staircase and private areas, including a powder room and two bedrooms with a shared ensuite bath.The lower ski-in/ski-out level, embedded into an incline, opens to a ski path that leads to Titus Mountain's Paul's Way Trail. This level is designed with winter sports in mind, featuring ample storage for gear, a bathroom, laundry, and a cozy family room. Two quiet guest rooms and a shared bath sit at the rear. he upper floor is dedicated to the light-filled primary suite, featuring an ensuite bathroom, double closets, and expansive windows looking into the treetops.Reflecting COOKFOX's focus on sustainability, the home's design prioritizes thermal comfort and energy efficiency.
