CAPERCAILLIE
“Simple Alchemy” is the phrase that has been used to describe this alluring mountain estate. Surrounded by native landscape and towering trees, the feel is that of a remote retreat. A place to unplug, relax and invite the peacefulness of nature to surround you. Refined simplicity in design creates synchronicity between the surrounding natural beauty and the architecture that defines the character of every space. The intentional connection of curated and distinctive materials flow throughout the home in an understated and elegant presentation.
Capercaillie, the name the owners use for the property, is a Scottish term for a large forest Grouse, and in Gaelic the name translates to “Horse of the Forest”. Located on Grouse Ridge Road in the Big Springs community at Northstar, the clever moniker becomes apparent.
