It has become in vogue in today’s Aspen real estate market
to refer to a listing as a legacy property, but for the House on Little Nell,
“heirloom” is perhaps more apropos. Envision Aspen of the 1950’s and what
comprised the fledgling ski and mountain resort experience. Flash forward to
today, and what has remained a constant throughout the changing character of
the decades is the irreplaceable location and appeal of the House on Little
Nell. Nestled against one of the world’s most recognized ski trails and
literally in the shadow of the Silver Queen gondola, the expression “if these
walls could talk” is delivered with the wink of an eye as memories of the
original home have been transformed into Aspen Mountain’s transcendent
ski-in/ski-out property. Today, the
7,150 square foot mountain contemporary home sits amongst mature aspen and pine
trees overlooking downtown Aspen. A short walk down the hill is every amenity
that has established Aspen as a year-round, world-famous destination. Situated
on a 10,000+ square foot lot, the home features inviting and convenient outdoor
spaces begging to entertain. The expansive main level deck directly off the
slope and hidden from skiers and hikers offers outdoor dining and lounging in
perfect privacy. A rejuvenating soak in the hot tub on the spacious lower-level
deck serves up relaxation and views to the stars. Indoors, the four livable
levels include a large great room with bird’s eye views across Aspen, an
adjacent open kitchen and sitting area, and a spacious east-facing master
bedroom with views toward Indy Pass, his & her bathrooms, and walk-in
closets. Three generous above grade bedroom suites, huge media and playroom
with sunken floor, ski-in equipment room, large elevator, and strategically
placed powder rooms all allow for plenty of room to claim your space in a once
in two generations opportunity to own a slope side home with one of the richest
histories of any property in Aspen.
