Have You Been to Aspen Highlands Lately?
I predict Aspen Highlands will lead the market in real estate sales this summer.
The redevelopment of city building codes and recent emergency moratorium will result in an increase of value on larger homes built in the Highlands area. Sales in Snowmass will be challenged for the next few years due to the construction of Base Village. Real estate sales in the city of Aspen are reaching new heights without the advantage of ski-in/ski-out proximity.
Aspen Highlands is no longer just a ski vacation spot, but ideal for a family compound or retirement home. Located close to Aspen, it rivals the hustle and bustle of Aspen’s downtown core with its ski-in/ski-out properties, close proximity to schools, beautiful views of the Maroon Creek Valley, its own biking system and access to Aspen’s newest development, the Aspen Recreation Center. The ARC boasts indoor wave pools, weight room, aerobic classes, climbing walls and an NHL size hockey rink. The partnership of the Ritz Carlton has added fine dining and world renowned prestige to the village, making Highlands a true family destination away from the congestion of Aspen’s downtown core.
Currently, only one lot remains for sale at $2.9 million; a 1 acre lot with room to build 7,500 square feet. Recent development includes the Thunderbowl townhomes, which are to be completed this summer. Most of these townhomes are already under contract and more will be released upon completion.
Call me today to tour the new Aspen Highlands!
Sincerely yours,
