Home on the Range You might be sitting bY the pool todaY, but close bY, it's getting readY to snow—and Your mountain home awaits. By Andy WAng In many big cities, a 45-minute car ride only gets you across town; in Las Vegas, it takes you several climate zones away, from desert surroundings to ski slopes, the Spring Mountains, and the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. Mount Charleston, a 45-minute drive from the city, is home to incredible snow-capped perches, ultimate seclusion, and temperatures around 30 degrees cooler than Vegas, no matter the season. Whether you're looking for a vacation home or an ultraprivate residence within reasonable commuting distance of the city's businesses and amenities, you can truly live life at the top here. "It is, as far as I know, the highest house in Nevada," Ennis Jordan says of the luxurious log cabin known as Bristlecone Heights that he built and owns. Located on Mount Charleston at an elevation of more than 9,000 feet, the 4,260-square-foot, three-bedroom house on 4.64 acres is half a mile away from any other home. "All the land that touches my land is national forest," says Jordan, who has listed Bristlecone Heights, at 4910 Cougar Ridge Trail, for $2.2 million with Kristen Routh- Silberman of Synergy Sotheby's International Realty (vegasluxury realestate.com). photography by Synergy Sotheby InternatIonal realty Living the high life: Bristlecone Heights is perched at over 9,000 feet above sea level. real estate & Design space vegasmagazine.com 103
