Idaho Ski Mansion

Today actor Bruce Willis celebrates his 57th birthday...and in honor of that occasion, The Ski House of the Day is his spectacular ski mansion in Sun Valley, Idaho:
This isn't your ordinary ski house: it sits on 20 acres of lakefront property

According to Business Insider and The Wall Street Journal a few months ago, Bruce Willis listed this mansion for sale for $15 million (with Sotheby's).  This ski house is 8,400 sq ft of luxury;  and the 20-acre lakefront estate also includes a huge pool, detached guest house, and gym.  I think it is absolutely gorgeous:
There's a huge stone fireplace in the living room

(Hey...what are those awards on the mantle?)...
Here's another, smaller fireplace, in view of the first

Even this cozy breakfast nook

There are six bedrooms and what do you know? This one has a fireplace too

There are six bathrooms; this one is gigantic

A shower with stone benches

These colors are a departure from most of this house's elegantly muted neutral decor, but the prayer flags are a welcome and familiar sight to many mountaineers and extreme skiers:
Did one of Bruce's kids hang these Buddhist prayer flags?

Tons of places to crash for après-ski time

You don't have to be a "Die Hard" skier to appreciate how fantastic this house is...and I have a "Sixth Sense" that this house will be a very special place for whomever ends up in it.
