In Aspen and Snowmass, rarely does an updated 6-bedroom home with nearly one full acre, 4,061 square feet (entitled to expand), and end-of-road ski access become available under $7 million. Now offered at $5,800,000 -- a price reduced to account for the cost of recommended improvements, so that bringing the home current is built into the basis rather than added on top. Discover the perfect blend of mid-century appeal and remodeled spaces at this ski-accessible retreat on a large corner lot in the lower tier of Ridge Run. Spanning 4,061 square feet of heated, livable space with entitlements to expand up to 4,500 square feet (not including a garage which is exempt), the residence is set on 0.9 acres with mature landscaping that provides ultimate privacy. The design is distinctly mid-century: glass-enclosed to blur the indoor/outdoor boundary, a Mansard roofline for heating and cooling efficiency, abundant natural light, two entertaining areas, six bedrooms, five baths, and a two-level floor plan for guest separation -- all reimagined with a contemporary aesthetic. The top floor's glass walls and 1,563 square feet of deck embrace the outdoors in all seasons. Enjoy an expansive open floor plan, walnut floors, a stone-surround fireplace, and inspiring views through a seasonal tree canopy. The living space flows seamlessly into the remodeled kitchen, encouraging culinary arts and effortless entertaining. Adjacent, the formal dining room opens through glass doors upon two private decks complete with an al-fresco dining area, grill, and hot tub. Three spacious bedrooms and two baths complete the upper level. Downstairs, find three additional above-ground bedrooms and three baths, along with a media and billiard room. This secondary entertaining space offers guests a private enclave with its own private entrance. Luxury finishes include custom cabinetry, a wet bar, and a stone-surround fireplace -- one of three wood-burning fireplaces whose crackling logs and aroma deliver a classic Colorado experience no longer permitted in Pitkin County. There is ample parking along the paved driveway to the attached one-car garage, with additional space in the upper parking area leading to the main entrance. Located in the esteemed Aspen School District, 49 Elk Ridge Lane is where timeless design meets modern luxury -- with end-of-road ski access and a neighborhood mobile pickleball court at the Elk Ridge Lane cul-de-sac. Offered furnished and move-in ready. See the floorplan, survey, ski-access detail, and excellent rental history under the DOCUMENTS tab, and the full video under PHOTOS & VIDEO.
