Hollywood star Tom Cruise is looking to cut ties with his sprawling mountain getaway in Telluride, Colorado. The award-winning actor and producer built the home in 1994, which was about two years before he starred in the hit movie Mission: Impossible. Tucked away on a densely wooded 320-acre lot, the chalet-like compound is accessible via a scenic, gated drive that leads to the heart of the historic downtown area.

Bleached cedar timbers and native stone adorn the estate’s main residence, which spans nearly 10,000 square feet. Upon entry, a grand foyer opens to the home’s voluminous gathering spaces, all of which are decorated with a rustic, ranch-style aesthetic. In the primary family room, a massive stone fireplace creates a cozy, intimate atmosphere for residents and guests. Meanwhile, floor-to-ceiling windows offer spectacular views of the surrounding landscape.
