Remarks

- A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Aspen History! This extraordinary estate — once John Denver's personal guest house — is truly one of a kind. A longtime Starwood resident, Denver famously composed ''Starwood in Aspen'' as a tribute to the beauty of this exclusive community. Set on a sprawling 5-acre site, the property offers sweeping views from Aspen Mountain to Mt. Sopris, with Mt. Daly perfectly framed in the center — encompassing the entire Aspen Valley floor. Perched on the side of Starwood, the home enjoys a rare flat upper bench of the lot with unobstructed panoramas. The residence has been tastefully updated with a remodeled kitchen and bathrooms, seamlessly blending modern comfort with the property's original ''John Denver vibe.'' There's also tremendous potential for expansion: build atop the existing structure additional by right (for a total of 5,750 sq ft), or acquire TDRs to expand up to an impressive 9,250 sq ft — an uncommon opportunity in Aspen. Starwood's coveted amenities include private tennis courts, cross-country ski trails, horse pastures, vast open meadows, hiking trails, 7 miles of private roads, a postal station, 24-hour security, and its own Starwood Fire Station — all just 15 minutes from downtown Aspen. An iconic legacy property with unmatched potential.
