Surrounded by aspen groves on a beautiful mountain setting, this stunning contemporary estate is situated on 8 acres on the edge of wilderness with spectacular views & gorgeous landscaping. Extensively remodeled in 2012, the ultra-luxury home is evocative of Frank Lloyd Wright’s design influences with superior craftsmanship & premium materials. Originally designed by renowned architect Charles Cunniffe & constructed by premier builder Iglehart Construction, the exterior & circular entry drive with porte-cochere are dressed with stone, wood, copper, & glass which open to almost 14,000 square feet of heated living space. The grandeur of the magnificent great room is accentuated by 25 foot vaulted cherry ceilings, a massive stone fireplace, & floor-to-ceiling windows – it is a dramatic space that introduces incredible nuances of texture, light, & views.
Family & guests will be comfortable in the 9 en suite bedrooms (including a caretaker apartment) of which three have gas fireplaces, five have his & her vanities, and two have soaring pyramid ceilings with exquisite detail lighting and an attached entertainment lounge with a 24 foot “L” couch, 65” Sony LCD HDTV with surround sound, gas fireplace, & refrigerator. A refined bar accented with leather & ebony provides a gathering place for both intimate & large-scale socializing, and French limestone floors lead outdoors to a cascading reflecting pond, 5 stone patios, two spas, enormous gas fire pit, and oversized built-in BBQ.
Additional features include 3 half baths, a gourmet kitchen with attached family room with a 33 foot "L" couch & a 65" LCD HDTV, radiant heat, air conditioning, humidification system, comprehensive security system, entertainment system with surround sound, private elevator to the master suite, and a 3 car garage with generous storage space.
Superlatives are simply inadequate to describe the sublime alchemy that occurs when high mountain grandeur meets an architecture that connects. This is a one of a kind peaceful haven with abundant wildlife, yet just 10 minutes to downtown Aspen! Located in the Eagle Pines subdivision, a private enclave of only ten estates resting 500 feet above the city with ski-in/out access to Buttermilk Mountain & the Owl Creek Nordic Trail. www.WestButtermilkHome.com
