A rare opportunity exists to own a one-of-a-kind property located on the Roaring Fork River, less than one mile from the gondola and downtown Aspen. The redstone home is set under a sheltering canopy of mature spruce, aspen and cottonwood trees and has 400' of river frontage. The site played a significant role in the rich history of the development of the Stillwater area and includes a waterfall constructed in 1913 under the authority of the President William H. Taft. Refined and classically detailed, the home features sophisticated interiors, tall ceilings, voluminous spaces with decorative details, four lovely ensuite riverfront bedrooms and a gracious great room furnished to accommodate cozy fireside gatherings or a formal party. Floor to ceiling windows offer rare views of the river, Aspen Mountain, and Independence Pass while spacious, covered, two-level verandas, accessible from all rooms in the house and furnished with hammocks and rockers are the perfect location for lazy afternoons and relaxed gatherings. The property offers easy access to miles of year-round recreational opportunities including Northstar Nature Preserve, Independence Pass, Smuggler Mountain, and the Rio Grande Trail. The perfect location for those who love the out-of-doors and value privacy, but want convenient access to the best in shopping, dining, and recreation. Two minutes to the Little Nell and the gondola. Included in this property is a one-bedroom ADU/guest quarters with a private entrance, located off the driveway.
