More than just a house on a hill, this uniquely designed estate rivals the best Tuscan Villas. Truly appropriate for royalty the residence boasts one of a kind hand painted murals sweeping over the Cupola and encircling the windows high above.
As you drift in to the great room the vast hearth welcomes and draws you in to soak up the sweeping views of the renowned Mountain ranges from Independence Pass to the Maroon Bells and the Elk Mountain Range beyond. The span of the room feels as though there are no walls being surrounded with glass and light.
Its floor plan crafts easy living with large public spaces, an office, master suite, a large formal dining room, and an open inviting kitchen with a casual sitting room all on the main living level. A 12 chair formal dining room separates the kitchen and living areas. There is a private veranda off the well organized kitchen that features an outdoor pizza oven perfect for family gatherings. Just steps off the kitchen a lovely sitting room with comfortable couches and club chairs facing another fireplace. Each of the rooms on the main living level has discreet flat screen televisions located in unobtrusive yet convenient locations.
Outside the gathering area there is an elevator servicing all three levels. The elevator is an added feature, enabling one to move luggage and gear between floors with ease, and giving people of all ages easy access to every level. One can drive right up to this upper level and bring items directly into the same level as the kitchen.
The lower level has three additional bedroom suites easily accessible off the main entrance to the house. On this level is also a media room complete with a pool table. An additional guest bedroom and private bath is located above the 4 car garage.
One can begin and end everyday in the physical paradise of the separate 2000 square foot athletic center with a 20 meter long and 5 meter wide lap pool. Connected to the Porte-cochere with great light and views, this sports facility is on the south side of the property and has a complete gym, massage room, steam room and showers.
It has only been rented once in its 10 year life, and once again the Aspen rental is being offered for Christmas and New Years only. Do not miss this chance to spend the holidays in this beautifully appointed, yet wonderfully comfortable and intimate, Tuscan Hideaway perched above the town of Aspen.
