Rare Ski In/Ski Out Estate

Perched above the East River Valley in the exclusive Prospect neighborhood of Mt. Crested Butte, 28 Kokanee Lane is a rare ski-in/ski-out estate offering direct access to the Prospect chairlift and the expansive network of winter/summer trails just beyond its doors. Designed by acclaimed architect Daniel Murphy and crafted by Bob Huckins Construction, this 7,061-square-foot residence embodies the essence of refined mountain living, where bespoke details and timeless craftsmanship converge.

Spanning three thoughtfully designed levels, the home was created for connection—whether welcoming extended family, hosting festive gatherings, or enjoying quiet evenings fireside. Established perennial gardens line the entrance of the home where a grand foyer ushers guests into the soaring great room. Custom millwork, dramatic trusses, and oversized windows frame forever-protected views of Gothic Mountain and the Elk Range. A hand-cast concrete fireplace anchors the space, while the expansive kitchen and dining area invite shared culinary experiences and communal meals. A Wolf range, slab granite counters, hidden refrigerators, and intricate custom cabinetry highlight the kitchen’s balance of elegance and utility.

The vaulted primary suite offers a true retreat, complete with a gas fireplace, private balcony, and spa-inspired bath featuring a steam shower and soaking tub. Distinctive features abound, including a west wing with a custom mud/ski room and a one-of-a-kind chapel accessed through stained-glass French doors—an inspiring vaulted space with its own balcony, equally suited to quiet reflection or creative reimagining.

Guest accommodations are generous and private, with five additional bedrooms—each paired with an ensuite or nearby bath. The east wing offers a private second level with two ensuite bedrooms, a kitchenette, and balcony overlooking the Prospect lift. On the garden level, a spacious media and game room extends to a private walk-out patio with a hot tub and bonfire area. This level also includes three guest suites, a custom office with built-in cabinetry, a children’s play nook, and a second kitchenette for effortless entertaining. Two fully appointed laundry rooms further enhance everyday living and cater to both family and guest needs.

Outdoor living is seamlessly integrated with broad balconies, an expansive patio, and landscaped gardens oriented toward sweeping mountain views. A heated three-car garage with extensive storage completes the experience. Offered partially furnished, 28 Kokanee Lane presents a rare opportunity to own one of Prospect’s most distinctive legacy properties—an estate where thoughtful design and unique details converge in a setting of unrivaled beauty.
