440 Spruce Ridge Lane, a multi-level, ski-in/ski-out mountain retreat built for a luxurious indoor-outdoor lifestyle during all seasons, will auction next month in cooperation with Erik Cavarra of Engel & Völkers Snowmass. Previously offered for $9.7 million, this former vacation getaway to A-list celebrities and entertainers, will sell No Reserve to the highest bidder. Bidding will be held August 4th–7th via our online marketplace, ConciergeAuctions.com, allowing buyers to bid digitally from anywhere in the world.
In harmony with its natural environment, the modern, light-filled escape is characterized with natural elements of stone, hardwood, and slate to create a warm, relaxed interior palette. Walls of glass with clerestory windows filter an abundance of sunlight throughout the interior to ensure spectacular views of the four seasons are never far. Entertaining is a way of life via a spacious outdoor patio, graced by French doors, and enjoy incredible mountain and valley views as far as the eye can see while the soundtrack of nature and falling water can be heard all around. A lower level, complete with wet-bar and a media/game room, creates the perfect spot for all-season amusement. When snow-packed slopes call, Snowmass’ family-friendly runs are accessed directly from the property, or head out for warm-weather adventures with over 50 miles of hiking and biking trails nearby.
Additional features include soaring ceilings; eight fireplaces; custom millwork, beams, and built-ins; master sanctuary with cathedral ceilings and sitting areas; spa bath with an enormous steam shower for two, separate vanity spaces and jetted tub; custom walk-in closet/dressing room; gleaming white, newly remodeled chef’s kitchen with a large island, bar seating, showpiece vent hood, professional-grade appliances including six-burner gas stove, under-mount microwave, and cabinet-front refrigerator; home office; patios and balconies on every level, featuring a hot tub, fire pit, and barbecue area; bright southern exposure and an attached, 3-car garage, all on a secluded cul-de-sac location.
“I recommended our sellers consider the auction platform because the Concierge Auctions process allows sellers complete control over the sale of their property—from selecting their date of sale, to an expansive marketing reach on an expedited timeline, to full transparency through the exposure cycle—Concierge Auctions is the best result to deliver market value with a defined date of sale,” said listing agent Erik Carvarra.
