Forgoing traditional mountain-home clichés, this 13,000-square-foot retreat embraces a more modern aesthetic with expanses of glass, warm wood accents, and structural steel supports. Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, the architectural firm responsible for New York City’s Apple stores and Bill Gates’ Seattle home, designed the residence, which is located within the Colony community of the Canyons Resort, the largest of Park City’s three major ski resorts. The 12.8-acre property has ski-in/ski-out access to the resort’s 3,700 acres of ski terrain and 21 lifts, and the secluded home features five bedrooms, a sauna, a greenhouse, copper roofing, a hot tub, a gym, a wine cellar, and three fireplaces.

The home’s centerpiece is its 82-foot indoor lap pool, one end of which is supported by a floor-to-ceiling acrylic panel that frames views of the surrounding landscape and allows swimmers to see the forest outside from under water. This part of the home cantilevers over a seasonal stream, providing homeowners with a nature soundtrack that they can enjoy from one of the rooftop wood decks. And the heated four-car garage and radiant-heat driveway make heading into town for dinner easy—snow or shine.
