78 Barnaby View

You will be amazed when you enter this impressive SKI IN/SKI OUT Castle Mountain home with year-round road access! Custom built by a master carpenter in 2005, this property has been skillfully constructed from high-end unique materials. Reclaimed "figured" Douglas fir from a demolished SOUTHERN ALBERTA GRAIN ELEVATOR has been incorporated into the kitchen cabinetry, bar, shelving, and entry. Main floor fir beams were salvaged from Fort Macleod's historic WWII B-52 BOMBER HANGAR! All windows, doors, baseboards and trim throughout have been skillfully crafted from clear fir.
