apricot. Zoned for horses, approximately two-acres provide an ideal pasture with fencing on two sides. Offering over 7,800 square feet, the home encompasses a main level master suite, four bedroom suites, seven bathrooms, office/study, and an oversized, side-loaded four car garage with adjoining greenhouse. Listing agent Becky Gloriod, from Berkshire Hathaway Homes Services Rocky Mountain Realtors, has the home offered for $1,776,000. Charming window shutters and stone accents are joined by a covered front entry with tiled floor, knotty alder front door with stone surround, and a peaked cedar ceiling with chandelier. A second front patio sits in a small niche accessed from the dining room. Travertine floors with a beveled “pillow” edge flow through a stunning foyer revealing a free-floating circular staircase with curved stairs and wrought iron railing with faux painted copper accents. Just beyond the foyer, a beautiful great room is highlighted by 20-foot ceilings and a dazzling bay of floor-to-ceiling windows joined by a limestone fireplace with gas logs. A formal dining room presents a peaked beamed ceiling with chandelier and French doors opening to the cozy courtyard patio. Through an arched stone opening, an impressive gourmet kitchen is adjoined by a comfortable hearth room and sunny breakfast nook. A stone fireplace with “Wattle and Straw” flu along with a wall of knotty alder bookcases complement the French Country appeal of the home. Designed by Randy Hall, the kitchen includes a center isle and inset cabinetry in a blend of alder wood and cream accompanied by slab granite counter tops. An icemaker, wine cooler, and stainless steel sink (with instant hot water) are all integrated in the island which also embraces raised counter seating. Additional appliances include a Sub Zero refrigerator, Kitchen Aid dishwasher and a Dacor stainless stove with six gas burners and double convection ovens. A tiled backsplash displays an imported Italian tile mural, while a custom flu exposes a faux ivy motif replicating the breakfast nook ceiling. A sophisticated office space adorned with a lovely bay of windows is finished in alder wood with

a box-beam ceiling, built-in desk and bookcases. Unwinding at the end of each day is a breeze in the main level master retreat. A fireplace with alder mantel flanked by bookcases conveys a warm setting. The luxurious master bath boasts inset alder cabinetry and slab limestone counter tops supplementing raised dual vanities. Tiled floors with an inlaid border are complemented by a large tiled shower and Jason Air tub built into a bay of windows. A significant walk-in closet has plenty of built-ins for effortless order. Breathtaking outdoor living is heavenly on the expansive rear deck with a combination of Brazilian iron wood and tile flooring finished with a wrought iron railing. Reveling in quiet solitude while admiring the Front Range is within reach by way of the living room, master suite and kitchen area. The exquisite circular staircase flows upstairs where a spacious hallway overlooks both the foyer and the great room. A loft area features built-in bookcases, a built-in desk and charming window nook. Two bedroom suites on the upper level include private bathrooms with separate water closets and walk-in closets. Following the circular staircase down leads to the substantial walk-out lower level. A generous rec room opens to a covered flagstone patio lodging a hot tub. A floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with alder mantel in the rec room is joined by a wet bar featuring inset alder cabinetry, slab granite countertop, wine fridge and refrigerator. One lower level bedroom has a walk-in closet and French doors opening to the rear patio and hot tub whereas the second guest suite has a French door walk-out, walk-in closet and a private fivepiece bath. A large media room on the lower level is prewired for home theater equipment and a storage closet under the stairs houses the home’s sound and security systems. Further highlights incorporate a sound system that works throughout the house including the rear deck and patio, central vacuum, hand textured walls, solid knotty alder doors, custom knotty alder woodwork, Pella windows with built-in interior shades, six-zone in-floor radiant heat for tiled areas, three furnaces, and central air on the main and upper levels. 

These social media mistakes can actually disqualify you from a job BY ISABEL THOTTAM  MONSTER.COM

Today, hiring managers are looking for your total picture — and that includes who you are online. Picture job searching as a twoway mirror. On one side, there’s you: a hopeful job seeker Googling everything and anything you can find out about your dream employer. And on the other side is your potential employer who can now look in every nook and cranny online to learn all about you. You may be thinking: “Will companies really take the time to look at my social media accounts?” The answer? Absolutely. A recent study by the Society For Human Resource Management (SHRM) found that 84 percent of employers recruit via social media, and 43 percent of employers screen job candidates through social networks and search engines. And what they find could give you a leg up, but it could also disqualify you from your dream job. The same study found 36 percent of companies have actually disqualified job candidates after doing an online search or viewing an applicant’s social media. Ouch. “It’s the recruiting world we live in now,” Matt Lanier, a corpo-

rate recruiter at Eliassen Group, a Massachusetts staffing agency, told The Huffington Post. “If the candidates are willing to publicly post something on social media, a potential employer has every right to factor it in when considering you for a job.” So the big question is: What could hiring managers ding you for after searching you online? What boots you out of the running? And better yet, what changes on your social media would make you a more attractive hire? We spoke with industry experts and hiring managers to reveal social media turnoffs and what you can do instead that’ll send you to the top of the resume pile. TURNOFF: YOU’RE PRIVATE If hiring managers can’t find you online, it’s not a good sign. It looks like you either have something to hide or nothing to show, both of which will send your resume to the bottom of the pile. “I would definitely wonder about the background of a tech professional who had zero presence on social media, rather than the individual who has a well-managed LinkedIn and Twitter presence, but

prefers that their personal social media such as Facebook remains private,” Dawn Edmiston, clinical associate professor of marketing at the College of William and Mary, told CIO.com. What you should do instead: The

TURNOFF: YOU’VE BOUGHT FAKE FOLLOWERS The number of followers a candidate has is a vanity metric with no true meaning, says Etela Ivkovic, chief operating officer of DragonSearch, a New York mar-

key is drawing a line between your professional and personal personas. While it’s fine to keep your personal Twitter account private, it may be worth having a searchable Twitter name that depicts professional you and what you bring to the table. This way you get to choose what employers see. Make it look good.

keting agency. If you are followed by influencers or other leaders in your industry, that could be more beneficial than the actual number of followers, says Lia Haberman, social lead at Livestrong.com. “This is key because you could have a tiny following, but still make a major impact if you’re

well-connected,” she says. Not to mention, there is an assortment of tools out there that allow employers to weed out fake followers. It’s all too easy to get caught cheating, and that could certainly cost you the job. What you should do instead: Employers are interested in how you use social media to interact, build relationships and express your creativity — you don’t need thousands of Twitter followers to get this done. Make sure you’re using social media to connect with influencers, industry leaders, organizations and publications in your field. Employers also want to see you participating in relevant online groups and they care about the type of content you share and comment on. This is your chance to show what type of contributions you’d bring to a company so keep your commentary professional and make sure you’re adding value to discussion. TURNOFF: YOU’RE INACTIVE Wayne A. Lynch, managing partner of Vaco, a consulting and specialized recruiting firm in Dallas, suggests that a poorly

presented Facebook page or a bad LinkedIn profile could have an impact. Simply signing up isn’t going to cut it. “Being active shows they know how to engage with an audience,” says Michelle Brammer, director of marketing at eZanga, an online marketing firm headquartered in Middletown, Delaware. Social media is your chance to showcase your ability to network, engage others and curate content, says Brammer. Don’t let it go to waste. What you should do instead: You have to commit to your online brand, even if it’s sharing or reposting on social media a few times a week. When researching candidates, Haberman says she reviews social media channels to determine if the candidate posts smart, funny, insightful, interesting or creative content, especially on Twitter and Instagram. This is your chance to show companies you’re the full package and that you’re more than your one-dimensional resume. “It’s all about the quality of your posts and the reach of your social circle,” says Haberman. 
