High-Style Mountain Living Crested Butte, Colorado

A BUYERS GALLERY of FINE HOMES®

ON THE COVER

By Cathleen McCann The old saying that the “view from the top looks good” still holds true, especially if you are talking about the view from High Meadow Ranch. Situated on seventy-two acres of mountain meadow just outside of Crested Butte, Colorado, High Meadow Ranch has a spectacular serene setting consisting of mountains, valleys, and forest.

“The home offers exceptional views of the area,” says John Stratman, broker with Mason & Morse Ranch Company in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. “It sits high in a meadow overlooking the Crested Butte Valley and surrounding mountains.” Located just minutes from the Crested Butte Mountain Resort, its prime location is perfect for both summer and winter recreational activities.

Its breathtaking backdrop and unique location adds to the secluded feel of the home. The property borders the Gunnison National Forest, allowing direct access into the forest and, as Stratman says, “more area to roam.” Of course, this unparalleled location means that native wildlife sightings become a regular part of life.

Built by Copper Creek Homes and designed by architect Daniel J. Murphy, the $4,599,000 home’s exterior consists of native stone and reclaimed barn wood. Covered decks provide the perfect place to enjoy the home’s one-of-a-kind views.

The interior of the home makes an almost seamless transition from the surrounding natural environment. Its 5,600 square feet of living space is graced with details such as massive overhead timber beams, reclaimed oak flooring, cherry cabinetry, and a stone hearth.

“It has all of the amenities that you would expect to find in a highquality mountain estate,” Stratman says. Its gourmet kitchen, wet bars, and dining areas open up to the large great room with its magnificent mountain views, making the home the perfect place for entertaining. A state-of-the-art media room adds to the festive ambience. The master bedroom is strategically located on the first floor, allowing for maximum privacy.

High Meadow Ranch is listed by Stratman in cooperation with Red Lady Realty in Crested Butte. I

THE INSIDER’S EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, NEW JERSEY, PENNSYLVANIA CUSTOM HOME, CUSTOM EXPERIENCE

By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau Anyone who has built a custom house knows that it’s not for the faint of heart. For many, the experience isn’t all that unlike a marathon (some would say a root canal), and often builders and architects exacerbate the angst.

Rob McGinley, recognizing that the home building process wasn’t always joyous for consumers, aimed to change the experience when he founded McGinley Creative Group five years ago. He created a team that has worked in the building industry for thirty years, and the East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania custom builder specializes in luxury homes in northeastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.

For every project, the company embraces three principles—quality, customer satisfaction and complete customization. “Our business model is different from traditional builders in that we’re looking to do eight to ten custom homes per year, not several hundred tract homes that we then have to sell,” he comments.

The approach translates into a tremendous array of services for clients. The McGinley team, for one, has time to collaborate with clients on every aspect of their house and focus on details.

The strategy also delivers a low-pressure experience and one in which McGinley assesses clients’ needs, probes for their perception of the ideal house and walks them, step-by-step, through the entire process. Clients also have the opportunity to change their

INSIDER’S EXCHANGE

minds and make modifications.

In another departure with tradition, clients may choose from a wide range of materials and finishes. Typically, McGinley points out, they’re presented with only a handful of options. “If our clients see something somewhere and want it, we’ll get it. By the time the house is complete, we want them to walk in and say that the house feels like their home.”

Additional services include consulting about building sites.

McGinley has its own sites or it will build on clients’ own land or locate new lots. Custom clients may also pick from existing McGinley plans and tailor them to their tastes.

Recently, many have tailored properties with an eye toward sustainability. “When oil prices went through the roof last year, it really gave the green movement strength,” McGinley observes. As a result, the builder has incorporated geothermal heating systems, solar shingles and bamboo floors into recent designs.

“We’ve really taken the homebuilding business model and focused it toward clients. When they sign a contract with us, clients aren’t just a lot number,” he says. “Rather than pushing a product on them, we create a relaxed, pleasant experience.”

Imagine Your Own Waterfront Property Anywhere When Phil Jackson asks people to close their eyes and imagine their ideal vacation spot, inevitably—ninety-nine percent of the time, he says—that fantasy venue entails water. “People are naturally drawn to water,” finds Jackson, who designs and builds waterfalls and ponds on properties that range from small city lots to elaborate estates.

W

Jackson, of Jackson Pond Management, travels around the United States and Canada building ponds and waterfalls for homeowners.

His design goal is to work with Mother Nature, ensuring that the backyard amenity melds with its environment in terms of scale, color, and vegetation.

“The water feature becomes the focal point of the property, so it’s critical that the feature blends in with the existing landscape and that both complement one another,” comments Jackson.

“There’s really an art to it. I want it to look like it fits right in and that it makes people wonder whether the house came first or the water feature came first.”

together and look natural,” he says.

Jackson also works to meet homeowners’ subtler goals. Some, for instance, aim to mask traffic noise and others seek loud, crashing drama. Still others crave tranquil water and a meandering stream for fish. “Each water feature is customized to homeowners’ tastes and budgets,” says Jackson. “I’ll settle for nothing less than perfection.”

And though most would guess such water features are limited to warm weather spots, Jackson points out that they also can be beautiful and dramatic winter focal points for outdoor spaces in cold climates.

“A water feature will change your life,

I guarantee it” Jackson says. Many clients have revealed to Jackson that they routinely flip off the television at night in favor of the peace and tranquility of gazing at their fish. Others find their streams and waterfalls provide a meditative experience in the early morning before they gear up for the day. And Jackson recalls one client who saw no need for a pond and waterfall and said, “I thought my husband was crazy, but the minute I saw it run, I knew how wrong I was. It took my breath away.”

“I’m really in the waterfront property business,” explains Jackson. “I provide clients with their own individual piece of paradise just outside their door.”

That art entails choosing stone colors that match those of the region, creating an appropriately sized waterfall so it doesn’t overwhelm (but does elicit oohs and aahs) the environment and enhances the physical and visual experience with features like lighting, vegetation, and fish. “It’s the combination of hard-scaping (rocks) and soft-scaping (plants and greenery) that makes everything come

THE INSIDER’S EXCHANGE

SILICON VALLEY, CALIFORNIA BLUE-CHIP INVESTMENT

By Cathleen McCann Silicon Valley’s reputation as the hub of the high-tech industry may have garnered its world renowned status in the 1970s, but this northern California enclave continues to be a draw for people from around the world. Silicon Valley, ideally situated south of the San Francisco Bay area, is comprised of several tiny communities including Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Woodside, Portola Valley, Atherton, and the Santa Cruz Mountains.

horse corral complete with stalls and its own septic system. One of the best features of this property is that you can either hike or ride your horse along the giant Sequoia-lined trails to the Pacific Ocean.

Gary McKae and Jim Massey, agents with Keller Williams in Menlo Park, are long-time residents of the area and perhaps its best ambassadors. McKae and Massey, both with an impressive list of accomplishments in the area’s business and civic organizations, sell residential property in Silicon Valley as well as ranch and vineyard properties in northern California.

Their insider’s knowledge about what makes this a great place to live and a sound investment is a boon not only for U.S. residents, but international buyers as well. “Silicon Valley is a market that doesn’t weaken or soften,” says McKae. “Its high-end homes hold their value and tend to be impervious to the depreciation found elsewhere in the U.S.” One reason for the area’s success is a plethora of blue-chip technology companies, venture capitalists, and entrepreneurs who call this area home combined with its close proximity to both Stanford University and the University of California at Berkeley. “Adding to the area’s appeal is its low crime rate, highly-rated school system, diverse community, and environmental consciousness,” says Massey.

A prime example of one of their listings is a twenty-four-acre equestrian property which adjoins the Portola State Park. This $1.8-million property boasts three homes and a one-half-acre

Tom Wagner Presents...

Manasota Key Celebrate life’s simple pleasures.

Welcome to Manasota Key.

The charm and warmth of Old Florida come to life on Manasota Key. Just south of Sarasota, off the coast of Englewood, this beguiling barrier island is in perfect harmony with its surroundings. No traffic lights, no high rises, no deed restrictions, just a two lane protected canopy road leading you to swaying palms, an endless white sand beach, and the warm, turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Century’s old Banyan trees alive with tropical birds, frolicking dolphin, loggerhead turtles, balmy sea breezes, the kiss of the sun, and the magic of the sunsets endow Manasota Key with a dramatic, sensual, and serene ambiance.

Take family, friends, and business associates 10 minutes south to Stump Pass and swim with the dolphins, hunt for pre-historic shark’s teeth and fossils, grill out, or just watch the sunset into the Gulf of Mexico.

THE INSIDER’S EXCHANGE

ONE-HOUR NORTH OF ATLANTA GEORGIA A BLANK CANVAS FOR DREAM DEVELOPMENT OR HIDEAWAY

By Eli S. Pager The Diamond C Ranch offers something of a blank canvas for a savvy buyer looking to enjoy the dream estate or sketch out and develop a commercial venture.

The approximately 1,400-acre property, a rare find, situated just one hour outside Atlanta, features lush, rolling hills and currently serves as income-producing farmland. Diamond C’s centerpiece is a lavish, 18,000-square-foot Italian-style villa that is enhanced by twenty marble statues, seven fountains, a koi pond with two waterfalls, and three hand-crafted chandeliers made of Italian crystal and wrought iron. A balcony offers panoramic views of the pristine farmland.

According to Alexander Aginsky of Aginsky Consulting Group (ACG), the property also includes eight rental houses, barn, storage

Italian Villa: • 18,000 square feet • 1,732-square-foot great hall • 4 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, 3 kitchens • 7 chandeliers • Elevator • Bose© Sound System • Luxilor© Lighting System • Lightning protection system • Pool and hot tub • 20 ornamental marble statues • 500,000 artistically laid bricks

Ranch: • 1,410 acres • 8 rental houses • Barn and storage facilities • Koi pond with two fountains • Two lakes with waterfalls • Over half-a-million dollars worth of farm equipment

facilities, farm equipment, and much more. ACG has been engaged to conduct due diligence on this unique investment opportunity, prepare a detailed prospectus in multiple languages (with financial projections, demographics, valuation, etc.), develop a global marketing strategy, and assist the property owner with negotiating the terms and structuring the sale.

The owner had originally purchased the property in 1973 and during the following thirty-five years acquired fifteen adjacent parcels of land, making it the largest such estate in Northern Georgia. He began constructing his elaborate mansion on this property in 1996 and completed it in 2000. The estate’s impressive attributes include:

503.922.2966 info@aginskyconsulting.com www.georgialuxuryestate.com

106 THE INSIDER’S EXCHANGE

A new owner could opt to maintain the existing environment—one that combines profound seclusion with accessibility to the business opportunities and urban amenities of Atlanta—or pursue an elaborate development where imagination is the only limitation. Anything from a theme park to a major commercial enterprise is possible.

The acreage has already been zoned and permitted for commercial development of a residential community with 2,400 homes, a championship golf course, health club, spa, equestrian center, retail village, and a hotel.

Diamond C Ranch is priced well below market at only $31,500,000, which is a discount of $15,000,000 off the appraised value. What’s more is that the seller is willing to carry back up to 75 percent of the sales price at a mere 3 to 6 percent annually (depending on credit).

GEORGETOWN, SOUTH CAROLINA POCKET OF STABILITY AT DEBORDIEU COLONY

By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau No matter what the times, everyone needs a haven of peace and stability. Such stability— fiscal, environmental and emotional—is one thing DeBordieu Colony, Georgetown, South Carolina, offers in abundance.

For one, values have remained fairly steady, though there are definitely a few more attractively-priced properties available now than there were in the past, according to Hampton Peace of DeBordieu Colony Real Estate. The 2,700acre community offers miles of undeveloped beach, as well as a 30,000-square-foot clubhouse that features a package of tennis, dining, and swimming.

But what really differentiates the community is its rich nature. You won’t find rows of condo towers packed along the beach here. After all, a paramount goal at DeBordieu has been to maintain the natural environment. And that goal has been attained.

DeBordieu, for instance, has only 1,250 home sites and 750 acres of nature— including old oaks, the beach, and creeks—have been preserved. “People bend over backwards to live with and protect the nature here,” comments Peace. In fact, some have juggled design plans to situate a house between two oak trees to avoid removing trees. And a recent YouTube video even shows baby sea turtles in the community making their crawl toward the ocean surf.

Similarly, the design of the 18-hole, Pete Dye golf course follows the contours of the land, resulting in an especially scenic course that winds through the property’s marshlands.

And DeBordieu’s location is ideal for those looking for serenity and seclusion, but in an environment that isn’t too remote. Pawleys Island and historic Georgetown, for example, are a few minutes away. The heart of Charleston is within an hour’s drive, and the nightlife and action of Myrtle Beach are about forty-five minutes north.

DeBordieu has long been known for its luxurious single-family properties, and the newest addition to the community is the Villas at North Beach. The four, four-bedroom properties will feature approximately 3,200 square feet of heated space and are intended to provide a luxurious retreat for those who want the DeBordieu lifestyle without the commitment of a single-family property.

Such property variety has been a hallmark of DeBordieu and a way to provide luxury retreats that address the needs of a wide array of buyers. “We really do offer something for every luxury buyer,” comments Peace. “We’re a mature, stable community that also represents a pocket of health in this country.”

WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE HORSE LOVER’S PARADISE

By Cathleen McCann The rolling hills and historic charm of Middle Tennessee make Williamson County a highly sought after place to live.

Set amidst this beautiful countryside is Hidden River, an over 200-acre gated equestrian community which runs along the Harpeth River.

Located about fifteen miles south of Nashville and minutes away from the historic towns of Franklin and Leiper’s Fork, the area surrounding Hidden River is known for its beautiful farmland and is home to many celebrities. Here you get the best of both worlds and can easily enjoy the quiet countryside or immerse yourself in the cosmopolitan feel of Nashville with its great restaurants, professional sports, and thriving music scene.

“Hidden River was developed about ten years ago on the former Beaman Angus Farm,” says Christy Reed Blackwell, realtor with Fridrich & Clark Realty, LLC in Nashville, Tennessee. It is comprised of estate lots that are each a minimum of four acres. Horse fencing and approximately three miles of riding trails surround the entire property, making this a horse lover’s paradise.

Adding to the equine-friendly ambience of Hidden River is the ability to build your own private barn, giving you the luxury of boarding

your horse on your property. If that is not your style, there are numerous boarding facilities within a couple of miles of Hidden River.

One of the showpieces that Blackwell has for sale here is 2410 Hidden River Lane, “A gated home within the gated Hidden River community,” Blackwell says. The $6.499-million home has seven-bedroom suites and is over 17,000 square feet.

The 5.94-acre home’s European French design provides the perfect backdrop for easy and elegant entertaining. The extensive array of amenities includes magnificent entertaining areas, elevators, home theater, wine room, workout facility, sauna, and massage room. Other features of the home include a beautiful pool area and a tennis/sport court.

Blackwell’s listings at Hidden River also include an additional twenty-two-and-one-half acres.

MONTICOLA AN ALBEMARLE COUNTY PLANTATION HOME

Monticola sits high above the historic village of Howardsville, Virginia in beautiful Albemarle County. The plantation is just 30 miles south of the cultural haven of Charlottesville and the University of Virginia. Built in the 1850’s by Daniel James Hartsook and Elizabeth Carrington Hartsook, Monticola is a wonderful example of a pre-Civil War Greek Revival plantation home. Monticola has been painstakingly restored with the help of the Virginia Department of Historic Resources. The home is over 6,800 square feet and sits on 313 acres with 4,000 feet of stream.

The glowing Heart Pine floors have been refinished throughout the home which has 12 fireplaces. The kitchen has been relocated to the main level and features Soapstone and Pine countertops. The other main rooms have been fully renovated and feature 10-foot ceilings and pocket doors. Originally, the upper level had four 18’ x 18’ bedrooms. At one time, one of the bedrooms had two small baths added. Now the upper level features three bedrooms and two large baths. A fourth bedroom and full bath have been added on the ground level which also houses a double-parlor with wet bar.

The grounds boast lovely cedars and boxwoods, six out-buildings and a pool. The largest out-building is 810 square feet and would make a wonderful guest cottage or studio.

The front porch has been restored to the original design and the structurally-failing rear porch has been renovated. Both porches now offer wonderful shade and space for entertaining. The movie “Virginia,” starring Fred MacMurray and Madeleine Carroll, was filmed at Monticola in 1940. The exterior of the home can be seen throughout the film.

Monticola is available with 313 acres for $5,295,000 or with102 acres for $3,295,000

JACKSON HOLE, WYOMING JACKSON HOLE BECOMES ATTAINABLE

By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau “Jackson Hole is a place where the West really lives.” That’s one way Andria Clancy of RARE Properties of Jackson Hole describes the Wyoming city. “We have real cowboys leading a ranching lifestyle, and it’s a laid back, family-friendly environment here.”

Clancy brings a unique set of skills—real estate, interior design, and construction knowledge—that allow her to provide outstanding, comprehensive customer service to clients. For instance, she’s able to give buyers a true assessment of the quality of a property and identify what repairs—including structural, mechanical, and electrical—and upgrades are necessary to make it most livable and transform it into something that will perform financially.

And Clancy is candid enough to tell prospects when to walk away from a prospective property. “I understand the impulse buyer and the emotional pull of Jackson Hole. My job is to be level-headed and help clients with their long-term real estate strategies.”

Indeed, she exudes a love of and respect for Jackson Hole, pointing to world-class skiing, whitewater rafting, and a host of other outdoor adventures available. “It’s a privilege to live here,” she comments. In addition, the area is set amid tremendous natural wonders, including the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, and Yellowstone National Park. And no small matter is the fact that more than ninety-five percent of the county’s land is protected from development and everyday her children thrive in an environment where elk, bison, and bighorn sheep are part of the daily landscape.

Those characteristics are also what entice newcomers.

Prospective buyers who thought Jackson Hole was unattainable five years ago will be surprised today. According to Clancy, the market has seen a correction and inventory has bulked up. Second homeowners can find a dream property at respectable prices and investors can reap the benefits of two rental
