El Dorado
Ultimate Family Ski Cabin & Restful Retreat
The home was designed with the homeowner's family ancestry in mind, as well as the look and feel of a Bavarian chalet—perfect for the surrounding natural beauty of the Sierra Mountains. The homeowner wanted to create a sophisticated and warm home with and open floor plan and multiuse spaces—something that could easily transition from an intimate dinner for two, to a large gathering of family and friends.
