Refuge at Pyramid View

Breathtaking views are front and center in this 7700 plus sq. ft., brand new, never-lived-in, contemporary home. The home is located on a private, end-of-the-road, flat, one acre lot. This south-facing masterpiece is bathed in natural light from oversized windows throughout. It boasts, among a long list of features, something not seen in Aspen: one floor, entry-level living, with the master bedroom suite, kitchen and living areas all on the ground floor, all with giant outdoor areas directly accessible from walk out doors. Entertaining and flow are maximized for comfort and ease.

The exterior is beautifully finished from the building exterior to the huge landscaped lot, with more than ample decks, an outdoor kitchen, and plenty of outdoor entertaining spaceThe south views, which are featured, allow you to see skiers descending from Highlands and Buttermilk; you can even see Aztec ski run on Aspen Mountain. With a binocular you can see your friends waive hello as they ride the lifts. There is more than ample room for a hot tub and pool, even a pond and a volley-ball court.

From the second you pull up to the house, you will be awed by the view, then when you can take your eyes off the view, and step through the grand entry, you'll look around at an incredible living space framed by a beautiful fireplace and just perfect kitchen.

For the cook, there are two of everything: two Subzero fridges and freezers, two Wolf ovens, a six-burner Wolf cooktop, two Cove dishwashers and the two kitchen islands to provide ample room to prep and serve for meals shared with family and friends. The butler's pantry provides extra storage and food prep areas, and houses a Wolf microwave oven.

The top floor boasts two fantastic and large bedroom suites with huge decks and arguably the best views in Aspen, even from the tubs. Also, an area for an office or homework place for the kids, or library or yoga room, as you desire, and more decks. The downstairs has a wonderful sound-proofed space for watching the big game or just playing games. There is another bedroom suite, that can be closed off to allow privacy, including a private entrance using the elevator, which also allows service in the mechanical areas without access to the house.

For the sports enthusiasts, a four-car garage is the perfect place to store your fleets of cars, bikes, skis, kayaks, and all the toys you're sure to have or want. It's Aspen, so a custom dog wash and a Tesla charger are "necessary" conveniences. From the garage, there is a mud-room entry to the house, with "lockers" that store your summer and winter jackets, hats and helmets, and boots (and built-in boot dryers, of course).

Location is perfect: on the west side of Aspen with easy access to town (about a mile and all on bike paths if you please), or Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk, Snowmass, the airport and downvalley. You'll have easy access to all Aspen has to offer just out the door, including ski-in and out for cross-country in winter, a short walk to golf, biking and hiking trails, and so much more.

In all, six en suite bedrooms, two half baths, and an estate worthy of cherishing for generations. You won't find this in Aspen -- until now.
