Description
This 4-bedroom 2.5 bath 2936 square foot home on 3 levels sits in the middle of a grove of Aspen trees at the base of Smuggler Mountain. Just 3 blocks to free skier shuttle stops on Park Ave. and the Hopkins Pedestrian Bridge. Walk out the backdoor or jump on your bike to access the infinite trails of Smuggler Mountain open space and all the paths of the White River National Forest. All the quiet, privacy and tranquility of mountain living in East Aspen, but with the convenience of a stroll on a bike path to access downtown Aspen. This unique home was built with environmentally conscience materials; the hand-hewn railroad timbers which previously crossed the Great Salt Lake are now the interior exposed structural beams, custom doors and furniture. No live trees were harvested for the home and there is no drywall. The walls are beetle kill pine and aspen siding that had been cleared from forests affected by the Sudden Aspen Decline disease. Other interior walls are made of compressed recycled newspaper and the downstairs floors are Marmoleum- a natural product made from linseed oils, wood flour and jute, it is Co2 neutral and does not omit harmful substances making it suitable for allergenic sufferers and hygienic environment. This home is distinctive, blending into the environment. The design has been used on other homes as a model in how thoughtful construction should be done, plus the benefit of a hot water solar and photoelectric systems for energy, adds to living a more environmentally conscience lifestyle. Partial Aspen Mountain views in the winter. Mature trees/landscaping, children's play equipment/yard area, wonderful deck spaces to enjoy the evening sunsets, and an al fresco hot tub with a view! Detached garage space, ski tuning room/workshop and a separate carport parking area. Main bedroom suite with a wraparound view of the Aspen treetops! Ample windows, light, and distance from neighbors on over an acre wooded sanctuary. A rare rental offering in this Eastside unincorporated neighborhood in Aspen. Available for 30-day rentals or winter seasonal.
