$1,500,000 Elegant Lodge Masterpiece in Jackson, Wyoming
With Old World charm and a designers touch, this architecturally
designed and historically significant lodge masterpiece has
sophistication and elegance in the heart of Jackson Hole.
Offering the ultimate living and entertaining experience, the
xxxx sq. ft. of spacious one level living includes a magnificent
grand lodge room, two master suites, and a gourmet kitchen . The
home was constructed and designed by Jack Kranenberg in the
early xxxx's and then completely refurbished in xxxx. It is
located on the site of the original Powderhorn Dude Ranch which
operated into the early xxxxs until it was later transformed
into the Hidden Ranch subdivision.
The front veranda is detailed with Brazilian hardwood, original
hand forged sconces, and copper wrapped log railings. The foyer
and adjoining powder room feature Italian mosaic inlaid slate
floors and a beautiful onyx bowl sink set on an antique teak
hand carved chest.
Original barrel ceilings, high gloss mahogany-stained red oak
floors, copper sconces and gingerbread moldings are all unique
to the home and a signature of Kranenberg craftsmanship.
The salon/dining room is situated in the first of two original
dude ranch log cabins that are a part of the architecture in
this historic showpiece. The corner stone wood burning fireplace
with burled wood mantle and iron grate anchors the room. An ox
yolk elk antler chandelier accentuates the dining room.
Expansive in scope, the grand lodge room is beyond compare! This
was the festive gathering space for the dudes, cowboys, and
girls who dined, danced and gambled as guests of the Powderhorn
Ranch. Hand hewn beams support the vaulted tongue and groove
ceiling, scribed log window trim, and massive native stone
fireplace complete with burled wood mantels and blacksmith
forged iron doors. A significant vertical light wraps around the
center steel tie rod adding soft illumination through its hand
blown glass panels. Nestled under the ornate staircase is an
imaginatively layered bar, mounted with blue pearl granite and
functionally preserved.
From the grand lodge room, french doors lead to a private
flagstone courtyard bordered with a brick half wall, shaded by
mature blue spruce and chokecherry trees, and surrounded by 19th
century double headed yellow rose bushes. The focal point of
this 930 square foot terrace is an exquisite fireplace/built-in
grill with towering chimney, whose stone pattern within reflects
the image of the Grand Tetons. The epitome of cowboy chic
entertaining accompanied by mountain and forest views is
unsurpassed!
The extensive master wing resides in the second original dude
ranch cabin. The setting encompasses a cozy sitting area
juxtaposed to a wood burning fireplace detailed with an
intricately scalloped mantle, herringbone patterned tongue and
groove walls, barreled ceilings, and a walk in closet. The
generous master bath includes green marble and travertine mosaic
floors, a Kohler deep soaking tub, and a double sink vanity with
four inch roughened-edge granite counter tops. The private
covered veranda surrounded by rose bushes and mountain views
complete this space.
Residing on the opposing wing of the lodge is the equally
spacious second master suite. Points of detail presented within
the festive master bath are Italian stone mosaic floors,
handcrafted Mexican sink inset on four inch roughened edge
granite, and a Kohler cast iron heated jetted tub.
The attributes of the commercial grade gourmet kitchen are
impressive, a few noted are an extensive granite working space,
center island and peninsula, bar stool seating and viewing for
eight. The fluidity of space connecting the kitchen, dining, and
courtyard areas, allows for a multitude of options when wining,
dining, and entertaining.
The third bedroom balcony overlooking the grand lodge room is
simply charming. Characterized by art deco light fixtures and
built-ins, with adjoining study, it is truly impressive as
another architectural entity.
The lodge is situated on a beautifully landscaped corner lot,
with mature evergreen and flowering trees that provide
exceptional privacy. Its exterior gables and dormers draw the
eye towards a ski sloped roofline with scalloped moldings and
windows fronted by evergreen shutters, invoking the feeling of a
mountain chalet.
Hidden Ranch borders the forest service and bike path affording
central access to shopping, schools, services, and recreation.
This unrivaled Lodge Masterpiece is the Heart of Jackson Hole!
