Yesterday was the fall home tour that featured homes and condos for sale in Snowmass Village and Owl Creek. Driving from Aspen, the first home on the tour was an architectural gem in Owl Creek.
Owl Creek
Cluny Road in East Owl Creek
821 Cluny road is situated on 4 acres in East Owl Creek. Built in 1990, there's over 7,000 square feet of living area and the the design by Architect Steven Haas was ahead of its time. The modern feel took advantage of the natural lighting between the windows and skylights.
Cluny Road Home by Steven Haas (MLS # 187315)
In the event 7,351 square feet isn't enough space for you, the owner has plans to increase it to over 9,000 square feet. Outside of the stellar views from the main floor, my favorite room in the house was the downstairs game room.
Downstairs Game Room
Prior to seeing this modern home, my previous experience in Owl Creek was seeing more traditional Colorado or log style homes. As I wrapped up this first home on the tour, I bumped into my friend and fellow Realtor, James Benvenuto and he was kind enough to caravan together for the day ahead for the rest of the homes in Snowmass, riding around in his Tesla.
Ridge Town Home
Ridge #28 (MLS # 189927)
The first Snowmass condo we saw was a Ridge unit #28. Priced at $2,995,000, this was a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom unit. Built in 1985, it was remodeled in 2013. There were some stairs to get to and from the unit, however there's decent views and a nice pool and hot tub on site.
Ridge Run Homes Up Faraway Road
49 Elk Ridge Lane (MLS # 189683)
Next on tour, we stopped by 49 Elk Ridge Lane, which is the first of several homes in Snowmass' Ridge Run neighborhood. This was a 6 bedroom mid century modern style home built in 1969 that featured over 4,000 square feet of living area. It's come down over $500,000 since it was originally listed and has lots of potential. There's parking and entries on both Elk Ridge Land and Maple Ridge Lane.
This one had a shake roof and there's several decks for entertaining and a hot tub. There's lots of potential here, especially when you consider some of the other properties we see later in the tour in the $10-20 million plus range.
259 Deer Ridge Lane (MLS # 190287)
For another $1 million asking, 259 Deer Ridge Lane was the next home we saw. It was a little more updated, having been built in 1982 and was slightly smaller under roof. It did have good bones and potential though. Most of the living area was carpeted and there was hot tub on the deck as well.
177 Stellar Lane
Following a similar price range of the previous 2 listings, 177 Stellar Lane was priced at $7,295,000 and was newer. Built in 1988 with a 2019 remodel, the owner also had plans to design a new home on the property. The existing layout has lot of angles and high pitched roof lines, enabling gravity to do its hand in getting snow off the roof in those winter months.
233 Stellar Lane (MLS # 190605)
Next up down the road was 233 Stellar Lane. This one was also built in 1988, however the owner went through an extensive remodel in 2023. Although priced at $10,250,000, this one was turn key and ready to move into. The upper level boasted high ceilings and let in a lot of natural light.
1929 Faraway Road (MLS # 189854)
From there, the home prices started jumping significantly. The following home was at 1926 Faraway Road. Listed at $19.5 million, this one. It was the most grand of the Snowmass homes thus far with nearly 6,000 square feet under roof and an elevator.
Lower Woodbridge Road
35 Lower Woodbridge Road v/177 (MLS # 190657)
We then took a quick break to see a condo at Seasons 4 in Snowmass Village. This was the lowest priced 2 bedroom listing on the tour at $1,225,000. This 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit built in 1971 could use some TLC, however there's definitely upside to get in for this price in Snowmass.
From there, we went on to see a few a nice condo and attached home near the Snowmass Club.
Condos Near Snowmass Club
Country Club Villas #1205 (MLS # 189299)
The first was a 1 bedroom condo at Country Club Villas. This was a 2nd floor 1 bedroom unit that had a complete remodel in 2024. One of the big selling points here is the ability to get access to a golf membership at the Snowmass Club without having to wait in the current waiting list. There's a washer/dryer in the unit and there's some tranquil view of Snowmass Mountain out the back.
Country Club Townhome #51 (MLS # 189213)
The 2nd place near Snowmass Club was a 2 story Country Club Townhome unit that had a 1 car garage. This unit had a complete remodel as well. However, it boasted 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and had a great deck and outdoor space.
Lunch Break at 1234 Wood Road
1234 Wood Road (MLS # 188639)
There was an incredible catered lunch at our next home with beef brisket, chicken skewers, salad and chocolate chip cookies. Although that's normally a way to my heart (the food was delicious), that is not the reason why I'm saying this was my favorite home on the tour. Built in 2024, this home featured over 5,800 square feet of living area plus another 3,300 square feet of decking.
It's hard to beat new construction. The owner is a builder and you can tell. This finishes throughout were over the top and you had grand high ceilings on both levels. They also did a great job with their furniture from Arhaus. On top of that, there's a ski in ski out feature for intermediate skiers.
Older Condos Near Base Village
Next, we saw a mixture of older and newer condos near Base Village. The first of which, was a Crestwood 1 bedroom condo.
Crestwood #2104B (MLS # 188527)
This was the lowest priced condo we saw today. Priced at $1,015,000, this unit is conveniently located, comes with a ski locker and has great on site amenities that include a heated pool and hot tub. Built in 1970, I felt this was a good value and entry point into Snowmass.
Wood Run Place Condos in Snowmass
We then saw 3 units at Wood Run Place, which ranged in price from $1,995,000 to $2,995,000. The varied in size and bedrooms, however one thing they had in common was the interior stairs (multi-level units) and decent value on a price per square foot as the building was a little older (built in 1983).
Newer Condos Near Base Village
There was supposed to be a number of units open at the Viceroy, however we were notified just prior to the tour that the building was closed so the units could get a deep cleaning before guests start arriving later in the month for Thanksgiving.
Enclave #505 at Snowmass Village
We then went to a new construction project called the Enclave. There were several listed on the tour that ranged from $4,495,000 to $13,990,000. However, only 1 of them was open and staged, which was unit #505. Although this seems high, this was not the highest priced condo we saw.
Havens #8 (MLS # 187240) at Snowmass Village
There were 2 units on the tour at the Havens, however we only saw unit #8. This unit was definitely my favorite if money were no issue. Priced at $5,000/sq. ft., this 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom unit features 3,359 square feet of living area and priced at $16.8 million. The floor to ceiling windows and view of the base ski run of Snowmass Mountain is hard to beat...
Aura #402 (MLS # 187653) at Snowmass Village
This Aura unit was a close 2nd to the Havens unit we just saw. Although it could be more situated for someone that doesn't want to do stairs. This 4th floor unit has an elevator that delivers you right to your front door from the lobby. This 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom is priced lower at $16 million. However, it's more pricey at $6,377/sq. ft.
They've thought of everything here as well with amenities at this exclusive building. The HOA fees run over $5k/month, however if someone has the means to spend $16 million for a condo, I'm assuming that would be well within their budget.
Limelight #233 (MLS # 188754) at Base Village
The final Snowmass condo product we saw was a hotel condo unit at the Limelight. This 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom single level unit boasts over 2,600 square feet of living area. It's more affordably priced at $2,817/sq. ft. and comes with all kinds of perks by being associated with the Limelight.
The Crown family owns the unit above this one and it comes with a Snowmass Mountain Club membership, ski valet, boot warmers and it's literally right next to the Elk Camp Gondola, which you can see out the window.
Melton Ranch Homes
We wrapped up our tour with 3 homes in Melton Range ranging in the $5-6 million range.
15 Terrace Drive (MLS # 188909)
The first was a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home built in 1969 priced at $4.9 million. There was a shared driveway and the ceilings felt low in the home. However, based upon the prices of the homes and condos seen earlier today, this seems like a decent value at under $2,000/sq. ft.
100 Terrace Lane (MLS # 188895) in Melton Ranch
This next one is a larger 4 bedroom, bathroom, where the primary suite is upstairs and the downstairs has an additional 3 bedrooms. The ceilings were lower downstairs, however it did have the ability to lock off for a separate entrance. This was also a good value relatively speaking at $1809/sq. ft at a $5,595,000 asking price.
554 Sinclair Road (MLS # 188950) in Melton Ranch
The final home we saw on the tour was a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home with 3,428 square feet of living area. This home was in much better condition that the previous 2 homes with a 2008 remodel. It was also a lower price/sq. ft. at $1,779. The catch was it was a much longer drive up the hill from the previous 2. You definitely got more for your money if you're willing to drive (and spend) a little more.
