About this property

Modern, Newly-Built Hillside Retreat & Garden 20 minutes from Aspen Ski Areas

Stunning, recently completed modern home nestled into a hillside surrounded by wilderness and open space. Find balance in nature by spending time in the private gardens complete with koi fish pond, walking stone path, fruit-bearing trees and upper viewing deck for relaxing views, and fresh mountain air. Upper viewing deck overlooking the valley with amazing views of Mt. Sopris is equipped with wood-burning fire pit and RH seating for viewing stars and the Milky Way at night. The large backyard garden is minimally developed with a tiered hillside vegetable garden that is a favorite for the local wildlife.

The home's interior is tranquil and restorative, taking a design cue from nature using neutral tones of quartz, wood and stone. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking hillside garden views. Enjoy the deep soaking Kohler tubs, and luxuriate in the minimalist vibes of simplicity and sophistication combined to perfection. Upright piano and indoor wood-burning stove ground the focal point of the main living area.

Chef's kitchen with Thermador appliances and sub-zero is generously outfitted and ready for elegant dinner parties or cozy family dinners with service for 8-12 people and designer Ralph Lauren flatware and dining china.

The adequately named "Zen House" serves as a great base for short excursions or all day adventures to world-class skiing in Aspen or Snowmass, hiking, biking or walking into downtown Basalt within minutes. Experience the charm of downtown Basalt with its many restaurants and local boutiques in a short five-minute walk from your front door. Clear your head with a little hiking walking a block from the house to the closest trailhead. It is located 30 minutes from the famous Glenwood Hot Springs and Iron Mountain Hot Springs for a mineral healing soak or river rafting. It is located a five minutes drive away from Willits which has a Whole Foods, Steadman-Phillipon Surgery Center, Aspen Dermatology, Willits Veterinarian, various boutiques just to name a few conveniences. It is located 15 minutes drive to Ruedi Reservoir where one can picnic, SUP or bring a boat. The Frying Pan River, with gold medal trout waters designation is just a few minutes walk from the house.

All mattresses and bedding are expertly curated for comfort, luxury and wellness providing a restorative sleep. Access to a large two-car garage with room for all your adventure gear. Offering a unique back-to-nature experience with the raw beauty of the backyard wilderness paired with the modern simple luxuries of the finest interiors available.

Pre-plan your vacation by booking ahead with massage therapists, private yoga, chef and catering services, hiking or flyfishing excursions, and cleaning services to make it your own private resort. Versatile for all ages and perfect for families, executive retreats or just a long weekend getaway. We recommend arranging excursions or cleaning services well before your arrival to ensure availability.

The Vrbo host Rosioun Galager was horrible, unprofessional and did not provide accommodation as agreed and paid for. We arrived at the VRBO residence on the 29th of March at 10:07pm. #1 There was a car in the driveway at which point we called the VRBO host multiple times to inquire if the residence was ready and to ensure there were no other guests in the booked residence #2 Called her phone multiple times and it went to voicemail. #3 We used the garage code provided to enter into the residence. On entry we noticed, shoes on the stairway and luggage on the 2nd floor. The bedrooms/bathrooms were unclean. The beds were on unmade. In one of the rooms there were dirty beddings on the floor. In the bathroom there was residue of hair in the sink #4 Upstairs the kitchen and living area was unkempt and looked lived in with takeout plates on the table . #5 we noticed in the bedroom upstairs there was someone sleeping. We proceeded to alert her to our presence #6 The Host came out of the room totally confused and informed us that she had no idea that we were arriving today as it was not in her home calendar. Even though it was on the VRBO calendar She made no efforts to help us look for another accommodation or cleanup her home. We were standing there waiting for her to assist us with alternative accommodation since it was almost 12 midnight but to no avail. She was totally unconcerned about our welfare or our lodging accomodations. She did not offer to compensate us as well.

Lovely, peaceful, convenient
One of our new favorite places to stay in CO. An easy walk down several hidden staircases directly into town. Property is bordered on two sides by no neighbors other than wildlands yet sits at the upper edge of the sleepy little city. Super clean with everything you could need for a getaway. Thoughtful amenities.

Great spot!
We were skiing in aspen so the house wasn’t awfully far as the local shuttle bus is fairly close (walking distance). Appreciated the cleanliness of the house as well as attention to detail for our stay by providing fresh flowers
