Mountain Meadow Contemporary

195 Cascade Lane Aspen, Colorado 81611 United States

This sanctuary of stone, custom woods and glass, blends tranquility with function. 5-bedrooms 5 ½ baths, 5733 SF masterpiece, where maple wood walls and bantered stone exude a sense of calm throughout. The stone galley and entry is on the second level, balanced by a grassy courtyard. Then inside you discover whimsical touches throughout, with cherry wood floors, making this an art collector’s gem. John Cottle of CCY Architects created this masterpiece, of angled walls and trapezoidal glazing. Bantered walls and custom glass frame the floating stairwell to the Master suite. The third-level master is a south-facing aerie opening to a lush forest. The light-filled office off the master gives one a sense of wonder and awe over the meadowlands below. Back downstairs the chef’s kitchen, with black marble countertops, leads to two separate outdoor decks. Two living areas, one a more formal living room, the second, a separate billiards/media room. On the lower level you’ll find four unique bedrooms, each with their own baths. A sun-filled workout room leads directly to the adjoining meadow. Nearby a tranquil sauna, outside on the entry level a soothing hot tub. Access to all levels is easy with a central elevator. And did we mention a huge 3-car garage, with mudroom, ample storage and organized mechanical room? Best viewed in the evening light, you can often see deer, fox, coyote, elk, the occasional moose or curious black bear. Cul-de-sac location at the end of Cascade Lane, just minutes to downtown Aspen. Bike to the Bells or take the easy bike trail into town across the Marolt pedestrian bridge. Oh…and ski in/out to the private Five Trees ski lift to Aspen Highlands and direct access to the 80 kilometer Nordic trail system! The ARC and Aspen Schools nearby. You are home.
