Shannon Francis presents

There’s a reason Starwood founder Edgar Stern chose 1020 Carroll Drive; it is simply the finest Aspen estate. Enjoy end of the road privacy and top of the world Elk Mountain views on six Starwood parcels totaling 115.7 acres. The 13,175 sq. ft. main house was designed by Thomas Kligerman of Ike Kligerman Barkley with an arts and crafts style on a Rocky Mountain scale. The vaulted great room ceilings are accented by artistically formed structural trusses creating light filled spaces with perfectly framed Mt. Daly, Capital Peak, and Snowmass Ski Area views through the Case Teak Windows and exterior doors. Book matched full length Claro Walnut paneling adorns the great room. Nine wood-burning fireplaces warm the main house including the impressive Colorado dry stack moss rock fireplace found in the living room. A sitting area next to the fireplace is a favorite après ski winter hangout. Built by Hansen Construction with the finest materials with the majority of millwork by Kol Industries including: wide plank European White Oak flooring from Germany, petrified wood bar and Douglass Fir and Pacific Yew in the family room, and California Bay Laurel and Myrtle in the dining room. The entry, chimney caps and sills are covered in Carmella Sandstone from Oklahoma. The generous main level master suite looks out over the upper pond. Four en suite-bedrooms, an office, library, and two powder rooms complete the upper level. The lower-level consists of laundry room, office, powder room, storage, kids’ playroom with wood burning fireplace, and an approximately 1,750 bottle wine room with additional 900-bottle case storage. An expansive Colorado buff sandstone front patio extends from the main house, taking advantage of all day sunshine and endless sunset views. A hidden snowmelt path leads to an oversized outdoor spa set amongst massive sandstone rocks.

A spectacular bluff with rocks weighing up to 96,000 pounds sourced from Crawford, Colorado and the eleven Bristlecone and Limber Pine “Ancients” overlook the main house. Nature trails weave through the numerous native Rocky Mountain plantings. There are two ponds on property, the 3-acre lower Saddle Pond and the Upper Pond; both are aerated and stocked with various Brown, Brook, Donaldson Rainbow, Colorado River and Snake River Cutthroat Trout. The Saddle Pond riparian areas are a favorite of migrating elk and wildlife. A guest house with four en suite studios and three wood-burning fireplaces is adjacent to the main house. Two 3-bedroom caretaker’s homes plus a 3-bedroom apartment, offices, garages and maintenance facilities are situated below the main house. There is a beautiful lakeside site, ideal for a pool and a yoga studio gym or additional guest housing to create a family compound. Access Shadyside and Sunnyside trails directly from the property. Starwood is Aspen’s only gated community with 960 total acres, x-country ski trails, tennis courts and on-site fire station. Red Mountain ditch provides excellent water rights. This is a one-of-a-kind private Rocky Mountain legacy estate with every amenity, direct USFS access, and forever views.

Three Pitkin County TDRs are included in the sale and will not be sold separately from the Property Sale.

Highlight quotes from today's webinar:

Dan Conn: "This market dropped harder and faster than any market that I can recall, and it has rebounded quicker than any time I can recall... More people in the luxury end are focused on having another home. I think that's a permanent change... If you're into the New York life, you're in the New York Life. You don't leave it... We're not just focused on global real estate. We are focused on luxury goods and the sale of the greatest art objects in the world...

Sue Nickason: "What's interesting is the interest and the inquiries that we're getting from new markets. So obviously Hong Kong, mainland China, India, some parts of Latin America that, historically, [from which] we hadn't received a lot of interest. Those inquiries are coming through trusted advisors, such as private client lawyers, accountants, and affiliates and agents in other jurisdictions. It comes back to globally mobile affluent individuals looking to future proof in terms of residency and in terms of having a place of safe refuge such as the Cayman Islands."

Nancy Almodovar: "Christie's International Real Estate [has] been such a great resource not just on educating myself and my team on what it is to offer not only luxury properties but also luxury service. That has been great, and then being able to connect with so many of our affiliates all around the world, and be able to service our clients when they're looking to move to those parts of the world."

Sonja Cullaro: "We have seen an influx of buyers and renters from New York City into our markets across northern New Jersey and Westchester and the Hudson Valley. It started more for short-term rentals and then it quickly morphed into buyer interest. We have seen people looking for both primary and secondary residences. When they're looking for secondary residences, it's always with an eye on the school system and the fact that the secondary residence may become a primary residence in the future.

Alex Jansen: "The Aspen market came back with a vengeance. Aspen has seen at least 100% uptick as far as under-contracts right now compared to the same time last year because there was this big lag. In April and May, the closings were very anemic, but we're seeing lots of very large properties go under contract north of $10 million, and some north of $20 million in that market. In Clearwater, the month of July is slated to be the best month on record based on volume for the Tampa Bay Area.

Brian Meier: "Since the reopening of New York City, we've been very busy. We have not seen prices drop dramatically. There have been some adjustments. It's going to need a little more time to tell where it's going to shake out, but the people who are leaving Manhattan, most of them are putting their properties on the market for rent. We have had a very slight increase in the saturation on the sales side, but we do have a lot of demand."

Highlight quotes from the webinar:

Laurent Demeure: "In real estate, we still have people interested in buying and selling... Most of our investors want to put their money in real estate... Some clients say they're going out of Paris now because they realize they can do their work from home... Most of our clients at the moment want to put their money in tangible markets."

Cyd Greer: "I sold a property last year because of Matterport (3-D technology)... We help (sellers) understand about flexibility and that we will get through it... Communicate with buyers to tell them to get ready to act. We are expecting pent-up demand after everything stabilizes. I'm already seeing it a bit.

Joyce Rey: "The luxury market is still doing well here (in Los Angeles). Beverly Hills is a magnet around the world because of the weather and the entertainment business that is ready to take off."

Carrie Wells: "We have done virtual tours since four years ago. Every one of our MLS listings has its own Matterport link... Aspen is the perfect place for people that can work remotely... There are buying opportunities right now."

The post An Aspen Home With A Grand Presence appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

One Aspen takes its name from the historic Lift One, installed on Aspen Mountain in 1946. Once the longest ski lift on the planet, Lift One transformed Aspen into an iconic ski resort that grew into one of the most coveted in the world. In 1971, the old Lift One was replaced by the improved Lift 1A, and the lift that launched the Aspen legend earned a spot on the National Register of Historic Places.

Today, One Aspen welcomes fourteen families to share in the one opportunity to own a piece of Aspen’s rich history within a contemporary on-mountain retreat.

The fourteen residences of One Aspen mimic the lines of their mountain backdrop. These mountain retreats step up the slope sides, allowing each home to have its own distinctive identity. Four understated buildings create a curated collection of connected homes, surrounded by canopied trees and lush greenery. Flow-through floorplans range from 4,385 – 5,920 square feet, showcasing the modern lines and minimalist design of contemporary mountain living.

The design emphasizes indoor/outdoor living, fulfilling dreams of mountain dwelling. Ride the elevator up to the main living quarters, where inspiring views of Aspen Mountain’s beautiful landscape loom large. Escape to a private terrace and soak in the silence of the setting amid the fresh alpine air. The ultimate expression of modern living beckons atop your exclusive rooftop living space—a serene sanctuary above it all, surrounded by unobstructed mountain and sunset panoramas.

Modern, sophisticated and understated, the fourteen residences of One Aspen are architectural gems that set the tone for the new Aspen aesthetic. Lofty ceilings and giant picture windows bring the outdoors in, framing snowy mountain vistas and flooding living spaces with natural light. Sleek lines, extensive metal detailing and creative lighting enhance artistic spaces. Natural Colorado stone, rich millwork and deep wood tones echo the surroundings. Forms reach up and out, complementing rather than competing with the alpine setting. Generously sized gourmet kitchens and lavish spa-like baths feature luxury brands and innovative touches. Every element from fixtures to finishes elevates Aspen décor for modern tastes.

Address: 755 S Aspen St., Unit A, Aspen, CO 81611

Price: $15,750,000
