The Home at a Glance

Above the Clouds spans 4,702 square feet with four bedrooms and three and a half baths, sited on 11.11 private acres. The main level holds the primary suite, an open great room, and a chef's kitchen, with three bedrooms and a flex room upstairs. Clean lines, warm materials, and walls of glass make the mountains the centerpiece of every room.

I would recommend building with Fairview without hesitation. I am confident that my home will be something I will be able to enjoy for many years to come as it's being built with pride and integrity. I look forward to a life-long personal relationship with the entire Fairview Custom Homes team."
