About this home
Some of the best views in the mid-valley unfold from nearly every room of this custom three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath Basalt home. Perched on a south-facing hillside above the Roaring Fork River, the property looks across the pastoral landscape of Emma toward Mt. Sopris and Capitol Peak. River, open valley and mountain peaks fill the view--and the home gives you plenty of places to enjoy it.
Designed to embrace its setting, the open and airy three-story floor plan is filled with natural light. The main level features a dramatic two-story living room with radiant floor heat and a double-sided gas fireplace, along with a dining area, spacious modern kitchen with casual seating, half bath and private corner office. Two sets of tall French doors open to an expansive composite deck and private patio, making it easy to take the living spaces outdoors and settle in with the views.
The top floor is devoted to the private primary suite with two walk-in closets and a second office overlooking the valley. On the lower level, a guest bedroom and spacious non-conforming third bedroom share a generous family room with walk-out French doors. With two separate offices and gathering spaces on multiple levels, the home lives much larger than its bedroom count suggests and offers exceptional flexibility for working from home, hosting guests and creating private spaces throughout the house.
Recent improvements include updated kitchen appliances and fixtures, new lower-level flooring, an oversized washer and dryer, and reinforced composite decking with power and shutoff for a hot tub and a permanent gas connection for grilling.
Mature aspens, irrigated perennial gardens and flowering landscaping give the property a welcome sense of privacy, while its Hillcrest Drive location offers exceptional access to nearly everything the mid-valley has to offer. Downtown Basalt and Willits are only minutes away, putting Whole Foods, restaurants, shops, TACAW and everyday amenities close at hand. The Roaring Fork River and Rio Grande Trail are easily accessible nearby, and a public transit stop at the end of the road adds another convenient option for getting up and down the valley.
For buyers who want more space and privacy than an in-town condominium without moving farther downvalley, this location is especially compelling. Aspen and Snowmass are approximately 20 minutes away via Highway 82, providing straightforward access to world-class skiing, dining, shopping and year-round recreation while keeping both Willits and Downtown Basalt just minutes from home.
It is a rare combination: sweeping south-facing views, abundant natural light, flexible living spaces, river and trail access, and an exceptionally convenient Basalt location between the amenities of the mid-valley and the world-class resorts of Aspen and Snowmass.
Buyers interested in expansion or an additional dwelling unit may explore feasibility and required approvals through their own due diligence; the listing agent has information available upon request.
The seller may consider creative owner-financing opportunities with a substantial down payment....
