Description Description
Welcome to A Mine Shaft, a spectacular six-bedroom custom-built mountain home centered around a unique mining theme and situated at the base of Peak 8 in Breckenridge. A Mine Shaft is ranked amongst the most impressive homes in Breckenridge as a 2013 Parade of Homes winner and thoughtfully crafted with vintage materials. No expense has been spared to provide the highest level of comfort, quality, and luxury. Guests will enjoy the lavish amenities including a professional-grade gourmet kitchen, theatre room, elevator, and private outdoor hot tub.

The unique architecture and tasteful design of A Mine Shaft will pique the interest of the most discerning traveler. Enter through the front door and into a large foyer offering plenty of storage space for coats & shoes, flagstone floors, a powder bath, and an adjacent mudroom with additional storage and garage access. Through the foyer, you’ll discover the spacious, open-concept main level combining the kitchen, great room, and dining area with expansive mountain views as the backdrop. High-end tech features include Savant Surround Sound System and Lutron lighting for entertainment and dynamic lighting needs.

The magnificent gourmet kitchen will delight chefs of all levels and features professional-grade appliances and all the tools needed to create unforgettable meals. The island bar offers seating for 4 on comfortable leather bar stools. There is no shortage of space to store provisions in two refrigerators, one large freezer, and a butler’s pantry. Additionally, there are two sinks and two dishwashers available. The adjacent breakfast nook offers seating for six and a TV. A gas grill is conveniently located on the small deck off of the kitchen.

The “Mine Shaft” centerpiece of the home is situated in the great room above the gas fireplace and is a stunning representation of an old copper mine. Above the copper mine shaft are beautiful skylights allowing for wonderful natural light all day long. The adjacent dining area offers seating for 10 at the large table, custom-made in Patagonia. The deck off of the great room offers views of Baldy Mountain and outdoor lounge furniture in the summer months.

The lower level offers endless entertainment options and plenty of space for everyone to spread out. A beautiful bar complete with full-size refrigerator, convection microwave, sink, and dishwasher will be a popular gathering spot – and an ideal place to watch over the friendly competition at the billiards table.

Or retreat to the nearby family room with a gas fireplace, large TV, and cozy seating. Beyond that, you’ll discover a ping pong table, Super Chex Hockey game, and the ultimate theatre room complete with 12 recliners, cork flooring, and specialty acoustics for optimal sound quality. In the corner of the theatre room is a faux mining tunnel crafted with nails from the Breck Flume. The stone patio and private outdoor hot tub are accessible through the lower-level family room.

The ski room, also situated on the lower level, with 15 lockers and boot warmers for 28 pairs of boots is a perfect place to gear up for an exciting day of exploring the ski resort. An exterior door leads out the lower level with easy access to the Peak 8 lifts by way of a private skiway easement exclusive to the neighborhood. A washer/dryer is conveniently located in the Ski Room as is a bathroom with a large walk-in shower. An additional washer/dryer is located on the main level.

Six beautiful bedrooms are spread out among three levels. The primary bedroom suite is situated on the upper level and features a king bed, sitting area with gas fireplace, TV, and private ensuite bath with dual sinks, copper hydro tub, and separate walk-in steam shower with a large rock bench. Three additional bedrooms are located on the upper level – all with queen beds and private ensuite bathrooms. You’ll also find a cozy den with a queen sleeper sofa and a TV and one of two laundry rooms on this level.

The main level is home to a king suite located just off the dining area. This bedroom suite features a king bed, TV, and private ensuite with a dual sink vanity, soaking tub, and separate walk-in rain shower.

The children of the group will be thrilled to retreat to the bunkroom situated on the lower level. This bedroom can sleep up to 8 in four queen beds set up as bunks, each with a reading light. The bunk’s ensuite bath features a dual sink vanity and a large walk-in shower.

A Mine Shaft is conveniently located exceptionally close to the Peak 8 SuperChairs. Ski or walk out of the home on a skiway exclusive to the neighborhood and in minutes you are at the Colorado SuperChair, Rocky Mountain SuperChair, and Claimjumper Trail. Located on a cul-de-sac with 3 other homes on a circle road. This home includes a three-bay heated garage with parking for six cars in winter months and eight in summer months.

Awesome!!!  
We were a group of 5 couples with kids that stayed at A Mine Shaft January 2017. The house is beautiful, in perfect conditions, very comfortable and with space enough for all of us and the kids. A short walk to the slopes is necessary for the ski-in/ski-out access but doable with small kids (4-10 years). Highly recommended!!!

Over the Top Experience  
When one is planning a family vacation for the entire family you want to make sure everything is as close to perfect as you can get and especially when it comes to our entire family staying together in one house. The "Mine Shaft" home was more than we could have dreamed of and had everything a family could ask for. Plenty of room for each family (there were 4 families & 17 people total) with entertainment for everyone. The photos and description on the internet did not do the home justice and this company did a great job having everything ready for us. Can't wait to do this again.

Perfect Mountain Getaway  
This ski in/ski out home was a perfect fit for our group. We had four families and everyone had plenty of space. The best part was it was just a few short steps to Peak 8 base. The children enjoyed the basement as their own space. They had a theater room, billiards and ping pong. Overall this was a very clean and well maintained property. We will definitely stay there again!

Awesome Place!  
With 19 family members this was a fabulous place with plenty of room. The gorgeous decor was breathtaking, comfortable and very clean. Located at Peak 8 was a great location to walk most everywhere we wanted to go. This company was on the spot to help with any questions or problems that came up. I would certainly rent again should the opportunity arise.

First Class Home  
The house was first class, great location, and the company was very responsive to any needs we had. Only constructive feedback we had was that there seemed to be pillows missing from some of the couches or furniture. Maybe they weren't supposed to be there but there were beautiful large pieces of furniture and the pillows would have made them a little cozier. Overall the place was exceptional and we would love to go back.
