Privacy in the heart of nature is within reach at this sprawling Snowmass property. Listed for $19.95 million by Carrie Wells with Coldwell Banker, Spirit Ranch brings nature home with its 52 acres up that sprawl to the Roaring Fork River.
Comprising four parcels, the 4,130-square-foot main residence (remodeled in 2010) sits on the center lot, lined with mature Gambel oak trees that lead out into the driveway. The four-bedroom, five-bath farmhouse hosts amenities that can be enjoyed throughout all of Colorado’s rich seasons, such as the heated sunroom complete with retractable screens.
Glossy hardwood floors connect the bright sunroom to the welcoming main living area. The interior, adorned with warm wooden accents, maintains the feeling of a cozy-chic cabin. Ornate fireplaces in both the living room and primary bedroom keep the spaces toasty during those cold mountain evenings. Bay windows and comfy nooks present views of the rolling hills that embrace the property.
For a more immersive outdoor experience, water features are plentiful on the property, such as the stream that trickles into a nearby pond and the waterfalls that can be heard from the main residence. Meanwhile, the immediate backyard offers a relaxed wooden patio, heated spa and stone fire pit.
On the separate parcels on the property, there is land available for construction of another single-family residence or other amenities like a pool house or a barn. The other lots are not able to be developed, but it does provide extra privacy from neighboring public plots. Open pastures and valleys make for clear views of Aspen Mountain.
The closeness of Spirit Ranch makes the chance for outdoor living that much more viable, sitting only a few minutes away from Aspen and Snowmass ski resorts and the Rio Grande trail connecting to Basalt.
