An Eye on Starwood

The busiest summer selling season in Aspen for many years has finally wound down – and now is the perfect time to seek out those potentially overlooked properties that represent incredible value, before the hectic winter season kicks off.

If you haven’t found what you’re looking for on Red Mountain, then come back to Aspen’s only gated community, the extraordinary Starwood neighborhood with its superior views and complete privacy.

Combining seclusion, high security and convenience; Starwood has always been a magnet for Hollywood celebrities and luminaries from the music industry who love the Aspen lifestyle, coupled with the ultimate Colorado experience; one of breathtaking views and free-roaming wildlife.

Many Starwood properties are in the mega-million range; however, I’ve selected two homes offered at under $5M that were chic in their 1980’s heyday. Both have the ‘bones’ and view-lines that make them potentially ideal for a remodel.

The first home – 602 Eppley – enjoys some of the very best views in Starwood and this exquisitely maintained, beautifully landscaped contemporary home sits on five acres and is a genuine jewel.

With stunning panoramas of the Continental Divide and all 4 ski areas, the home is located near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offering peace and quiet.

602 Eppley is offered at $4,695,00.

The second featured property is located at 574 Johnson Drive.

This 6,350 sq ft Bill Poss-designed contemporary home sits on just under four acres, with spectacular views of Mt Sopris, Capital Peak and Mt Daly – and was designed for indoor/outdoor entertaining.

Beautifully landscaped inside and out with lovely water features and a separate guest cottage/studio, 574 Johnson Drive is offered at $4,950,00 .
