Nestled just off Lower River Road, this location has evolved into the upper valley's premier location for those seeking the perfect blend of convenience and natural beauty. Boasting easy access to the slopes of Aspen/Snowmass and the vibrant heart of Old Town Basalt, it's a dream location for those who value both adventure and tranquility.
For over three decades, 2755 Lower River Road has been cherished by the same family, and now, it's ready for a new chapter. This estate presents a rare opportunity for redevelopment, allowing you to create a masterpiece that complements the neighboring ranch estates, which seldom grace the market.
Surrounded by pristine ranch lands, this property is a haven for big game enthusiasts and offers seamless access to the pristine waters of the Roaring Fork River. The sanctuary is discreetly tucked away, bordering endless acres of BLM land, ensuring the utmost privacy. Plus, it's just a short 5-minute drive to the prestigious Roaring Fork Club, making it an ideal location for avid golfers.
The picturesque setting is truly a sight to behold. A manicured lawn wraps around a tranquil pond, home to thriving trout, where the children in the family honed their fly fishing and kayaking skills. The parents relished in the serenity, soaking in the tranquil ranch lands and breathtaking views of the red buttes of Old Snowmass from the kitchen window.
This property also boasts senior water rights from the Eli Cerise Ditch, producing an impressive 220 gallons per minute. This invaluable resource opens up opportunities for expansion, potentially creating an equestrian facility where you can ride out the backdoor and into the vast expanse of BLM lands.
The cozy, energy-efficient 3-bedroom home sits atop this incredible pond setting, offering spectacular views. An oversized two-stall garage accommodates even the largest motorhome, and there's a heated workshop for the crafty homeowner. Ample parking awaits for hosting the grand events and gatherings that have marked this property's rich history.
This is more than just a property; it's a legacy waiting for its next proud owner to embrace and transform into their own piece of paradise.
