Stylish, Mid-Mountain Retreat

A stylish, mid-mountain retreat with sweeping mountain views, Perfect View sits just 5 minutes from skiing at Snowmass and 20 minutes from downtown Aspen. Defined by walls of windows, stacked-stone fireplaces, and vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, this vintage home welcomes guests to an open-concept living area with a classic lodge ambience. Settle into one of two full-length sofas by the wood-burning fireplace, find inspiration at an antique drafting desk, or step onto the expansive upper-level deck to enjoy views that stretch from Independence Pass to Sam's Knob. Steps from the living area, an 8-seat formal dining table offers space for sit-down dinners. Six stools at the breakfast bar allow for larger groups or a separate ''kids' table.''On blue-bird days, fire up the gas grill for dinner al fresco at the 8-seat patio table. Ideal for families or larger groups, this home also features a lower-level den with a large-screen TV, wood-burning fireplace, pool table and twin-size daybed. Give kids their own space to play, or use this space for apre-ski at home. Glass doors open this level to a covered patio and hot tub with mountain views. Guests mixing work with leisure will also appreciate the den's office area, which overlooks the mountains through picture windows. Down the hall is a private guest suite. The home's four bedrooms, evenly spaced for privacy, accommodate up to 8 guests with flexible bedding configurations. A gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a private washer and dryer add all the comforts of home. From its convenient location near Snowmass Village, Perfect View offers access to all four of Aspen's ski areas in under 25 minutes. An attached 1-car garage makes it easy to explore the surrounding area, including hiking and biking trails, golf courses, playgrounds and live events. The restaurants, shops, galleries and entertainment downtown are 20 minutes away. Whether you're planning a ski vacation or summer escape, Perfect View is ideally situated to experience the year-round recreation and culture of Aspen.
