Life In Your Space | On Highcrest

April 27, 2017 | Brian Tripoli

We were smitten the first time we laid eyes on this joint. Can you blame us? The views. The kitchen. That fireplace. THE VIEWS. Homes “built for the entertainer” are a dime a dozen. “Open concept” and “gourmet kitchens” can verge on rote. But this place–which is currently up for grabs–is something different.

This place makes you wonder how one scores an invite to cocktail hour…

We, at least, asked ourselves the question–and, well, we invited ourselves over for one. We just had to know what it felt like to lounge on that deck and watch the sun sink into the horizon–to sit in the living room and bask in the awesomeness of that polished slab of granite and soak in all the love that a well-designed kitchen tends to create.

The kind owners (and sellers) of this spot opened their doors to our COLLECTIVE crew.

They afforded us full use of the space, and–while we kept mostly to the connected kitchen and entertaining spaces and patio–we reserved time for a bit of one-on-one on the indoor basketball court. 

Alas, the evening went by far too quickly…

We ate and drank and laughed and took in the crazy-pretty vistas of our fair valley. Places like this one are good for the soul. Places like this are too few and far between. We hope whomever next inhabits this fine spot understands as much. And we hope they invite us by for another round.

There are homes that shelter us, and then there are homes that shape us. The kind that quietly witness who we were, who we became, and all the small moments in between. A towering, brick flat where friendships turned into chosen family. Kitchens held late-night conversations long after the music...

There’s something about spring that makes us pay closer attention to the spaces we call home. The light lingers a little longer in the evenings, trees begin their quiet bloom, and suddenly, the outdoors feels just as essential as the rooms within. It’s a season of return and renewal—of opening...
