Westhaven / Vail

EST. 2018

Vail, Colorado

Situated in the heart of Vail’s Cascade Village, West Haven is a stunning example of vision, respect for history, and modern design. Originally an outdated ski chalet, this home was reimagined by Michael into a mountain-modern masterpiece while preserving the charm of its original design by renowned architect Gordon Pierce, a key figure in shaping Vail’s distinctive architectural identity.

To honor the home’s legacy and elevate its functionality, Michael collaborated with architect Katrina Eckelhoff to reimagine the floor plan, creating a more open, light-filled space perfect for contemporary living. The result is a home that blends clean, modern aesthetics with playful nods to the funky 1970s and 1980s, retaining its character while feeling fresh and inviting.

Perfect for hosting large gatherings, West Haven is a spacious retreat that combines thoughtful design with timeless appeal. It stands as a shining example of Michael’s ability to recognize potential and transform it into a home that will be cherished for generations, all while respecting the unique architectural heritage of Vail.
