Aspen is internationally renowned as a winter and summer resort. It offers the finest in culture, shopping and dining. It is a mecca for year-round recreational activities and offers endless opportunities… golfing, fishing, skiing, hiking, biking, rafting, kayaking and more. Enjoy its endless beauty throughout the seasons.
Located 200 miles southwest of Denver and 130 miles east of Grand Junction, Aspen is at the southeastern end of the Roaring Fork Valley. The Roaring Fork Valley stretches from Glenwood Springs in the northwest end to Aspen on the southeast end and is surrounded by the White River National Forest. The town of Aspen is surrounded on 3 sides by Aspen Mountain, Smuggler Mountain and Red Mountain. Aspen is home to three ski mountains – Aspen Mountain and Aspen Highlands and Buttermilk Ski Areas.
homestead 3 at double bar x ranch presents an exceptionally rare aspen offering: a legacy-scale homesite with remarkable building rights, expansive acreage, and a level of privacy and lifestyle infrastructure seldom found this close to town. set on approximately 9 acres within the storied double bar x ranch enclave, this is a rare opportunity to create a true mountain compound less than two miles from aspen, within walking distance of maroon creek golf course, and moments from all four ski mountains. with private fly fishing, irrigated pastures, horse property potential, and private walking and hiking trails, the setting captures the essence of aspen ranch living without sacrificing proximity, prestige, or convenience.
the planned residential program for homestead 3 is conceived at an estate scale by olson kundig, with a 15,630-square-foot main house, a 2,800-square-foot greenhouse, and a 2,400-square-foot barn__a compound designed to balance architectural significance with effortless indoor-outdoor living. the main residence includes 7 bedrooms, including a primary suite, adu suite, guest suites, and bunk accommodations, along with an amenity package more often associated with a private resort: wine room and lounge, theater, game room, golf simulator, fitness studio, massage and spa, library, multiple entertaining spaces, catering kitchen, elevator, and a three-car garage. outdoor features include ponds, a private drive, autocourt, fire pit, recreational water feature, and trails, creating a fully immersive aspen estate experience.
in a market where large acreage near aspen is extraordinarily scarce, it is even rarer to find a property with such generous and flexible development rights. the result is a legacy offering that combines scale, entitlement strength, ranch utility, and luxury lifestyle in a way that is virtually impossible to replicate today.
