Old Snowmass is known for its breathtaking scenery and peaceful mountain lifestyle, but few properties capture its essence the way the St. Benedict Monastery does. Spanning an incredible 3,700 acres, this historic retreat has long been a quiet landmark tucked into one of Colorado’s most scenic pockets. Now, it’s officially on the market for an extraordinary $150 million.
Walking the monastery grounds feels like stepping into another world. Once home to a retreat center, a bookstore, and a thriving spiritual community, the property carries decades of history. As you look across the open fields toward the mountain range with Snowmass Mountain visible in the distance, it’s easy to understand why this setting has meant so much to so many.
But with the listing comes a bittersweet reality. While it presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for buyers seeking a private mountain retreat, it also marks the end of an era for a beloved institution in the valley.
Still, Old Snowmass offers a wide range of properties far beyond the multimillion-dollar headlines. For buyers exploring the area, there are options for every vision, from ranch acreage to luxury estates to mountain-view homes.
