Those who really, really need to stretch their legs in ski country and score the Champagne Powder Steamboat has trademarked and sued over, this 53-acre estate, up for auction February 20th, should do the trick. While it packs 6 bedrooms and some as-yet-unnamed-but-surely-stunning figure of square footage, the devil is really in the details here. A facade of Telluride gold rock. A custom Rocky Mountain Forge railing gracing the staircase in the two-story foyer. Cabinetry made from the reclaimed hemlock of a Pennsylvania barn. An capacious indoor pool. A private screening room with a ceiling graced by the stars of heaven. And enough Venetian plaster and heavily-draped Earth tone curtains to make you think you're in Rome (the TV series). The estate, which overlooks a small lake and has a guest house to keep some distance between in-laws, is going up for auction with no minimum and no reserve. Time to check the mattress for that spare cash...
