All eyes are on the mountains at this slick, cabin-style apartment in Telluride, whether that be from the floor-to-ceiling windows or as you hit the slopes only eighty metres from home. Hardwood floors, an eye-catching antler chandelier and a modern take on the classic roaring fireplace all give off a serious alpine ambiance, while squashy sofas and a deep bath provide practical comfort after a long day exploring the peaks. The home offers up a charming wooden terrace, where come warm days, you can fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast or on cooler days, brave a cup of coffee on the wrought-iron furniture and check out the conditions before hitting the slopes. A black, quartz-topped kitchen has everything you need for refuelling, with a good range of utensils for culinary experimentation, though the gondola into the centre of town isn't far if you're in the mood for a night off.
