Galena Chalet – 1BR Sleeps 4 - Rare Find Retreat

Galena Chalet – A Rare Find Sunny Side Retreat

1 Bedroom • 1 Full Bath • 2 Half Baths • Sleeps 4

Tucked at the foot of Telluride's sunny side, Galena Chalet is the kind of place you can't build anymore. While neighboring lots were pushed out to the property line, this home — owned by a longtime local who happens to be an author, chef, and anthropologist — was kept human-scaled, light-filled, and unmistakably curated to an exceptional guest experience. The result is a couples' mountain retreat with a soul: warm saffron walls, polished concrete floors, a corrugated tin ceiling, a hand-forged spiral staircase, and a chef's kitchen that has been carefully staged for those who enjoy cooking in.

Just 2.5 blocks from Telluride's iconic Main Street, this home sits in one of the best front-row seats in the box canyon. Panoramic windows frame Bear Creek Valley and the Telluride Ski Resort from the kitchen and dining area. From the outdoor patio you can watch the 4th of July fireworks launch overhead, and during festival weekends like Bluegrass and Blues & Brews listen to the music without ever leaving the property.

PROPERTY LAYOUT
Main Floor — Open Concept
Walk in to a soaring open kitchen, dining, living and entry space crowned by a corrugated tin ceiling. The chef's kitchen runs the length of the room with stainless gas range, dishwasher, commercial refrigerator, granite counters, and a sun-soaked sink that looks straight out at the ski resort. A reclaimed wood dining table seats six beneath a wall of windows. Ample pantry space, ice drawer and powder room (toilet + sink) are on this floor.

A comfortable living room space with suede love seat, two leather armchairs, antique coffee table, internet ready TV, and Sonos sound system.

Top Floor — Primary Suite
Up the spiral staircase: a vaulted A-frame bedroom with queen bed framed by a signature glass-block headboard wall, bedside lamps, dormer windows facing the mountains, and a reading nook. The ensuite full bathroom includes a tub/shower combo and single vanity.

Lower Level —
Reached either by the interior hatch-style door or a private exterior entrance. A queen mattress and box spring serve as a comfortable sleeping area for the 3rd and 4th guests, with its own half bath, desk/workspace, and laundry.
