Grassland House, Crestone

caverly ext southLocated in the Baca Grants in Crestone, CO, Crestone Mountain Builders built this single story home in 2014.  Designed to mimic it’s natural grass meadow location, this house spreads out low to the ground. Compact and energy efficient with lots of passive solar gain from the southern sun this house is only 1,000 sf with 1 BR / 1 BA (1,170 sf with the addition of a future second bedroom and second bathroom).

Bright white interior walls showcase artwork and maximize natural daylighting while making the space feel larger than it’s compact footprint.  10′-0″ high ceilings in the Great Room are clad in blue-stain pine tongue and groove and all the other wood is knotty pine, providing a simple palette of materials that add to the feeling of spaciousness.
