Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2006
Bill and I are both from areas back east that have beautiful lakes and scenery such as that of the Grand Lake area.
Why the Owner Chose Grand Lake
We felt that the Grand Lake area was an easy drive from Denver to be able to get away to relax and enjoy all God had for us. We had this home build for us and trying to catpure with the help of an outstanding archetech and builder, the feel of being the captain of a ship while looking down our scenic meandering canal. We love the wild life and fishing right out our back door.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Spectacular views from most windows in the home. Very sunny and open feel. We have tried to make it a home away from home for our guests with a lot of extras.
