Map & Owner's Profile
Luxury, Quiet, Mountain Home
Year Purchased: 1995
Why the Owner Chose Taluswood
Close to home and fabulous restaurants. Treetops is away from the hustle and bustle of the Village and provides peace and quiet after a hard day of skiing. With the quality of cathedral cedar lined ceilings, heated floors, granite counters and upgraded lighting, Treetops is a terrific place to relax and tell your family and friends about the day's skiing highlights.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Treetops is our ski in, ski out mountain home. It has all the comforts of our city based house and yet is in the mountains with fresh air and much snow. It is an oasis from the pressures of everyday city life.
Great meeting place for a beer and stories. It used to be the location of the World Cup Downhill finish line. It also is the place where, in corn snow, I fell and broke my right shoulder. (Ouch)
