The residence at 2100 Alpine Drive is a sophisticated “mountain contemporary” custom home tucked into the aspen-filled hillsides of West Vail. Completed in 2019 (with some records indicating initial phases in 2017), this multi-level luxury duplex/multi-family structure was designed by Berglund Architects and constructed by Vail Custom Builders. It serves as a prime example of high-end Vail real estate that prioritizes both privacy and panoramic mountain views.
The Buckhorn Valley Community is one of the largest residential master-planned subdivisions in Colorado’s lower Vail Valley, spanning approximately 368 acres between the towns of Eagle and Gypsum. Conceptualized to eventually house over 900 homes, the development is strategically located south of the Eagle County Regional Airport and provides a critical supply of attainable housing for families and professionals in the region. As of late 2024, nearly 460 lots have been developed across various phases, featuring a mix of single-family residences and duplexes.
The community’s structural and architectural identity is defined by its extensive use of modular construction in partnership with providers like Northstar Systembuilt, a method chosen to accelerate delivery timelines in the high-alpine environment while maintaining high quality standards.
Jirsa Hedrick has assisted in the design of several single family residences that are partially modular in several mountain towns including Eagle and Minturn. By providing a hybrid site built – modular system the contractor is able to accelerate construction timelines. Jirsa Hedrick provided foundation design, and in some cases design of a stick framed lower level, with modular units and roofs designed by a modular supplier.
