Recently reduced $549,000 this is Vail's best residential value and currently the least expensive listing price per square foot in a duplex or single family configuration in Vail and Lionshead. Large lot backing up to Simba ski run. RARE 6-BEDROOM SKI RETREAT perched amongst tall pines and just a short walk to Born Free ski run (5 homes away). Beautiful views to the valley and West Lionshead from the southwest patio and dining room. Heated driveway and front entry allow for easy access to Forest Road for ski-out with the option to ski-in either to Forest Road or to the upper level of home. Neighbor two doors west is building a ski hut below Simba ski run with infinity hot tub. Future owner could review the option to add a similar hut to this property. Home features include a beautiful gourmet kitchen with hearth room, two family rooms featuring a wood burning fireplace, formal dining area and powder bathroom. Adjacent to the kitchen and breakfast nook is a flagstone heated patio with sunken hot tub and entertaining space providing an amazing alpine outdoor experience. The spacious great room is ideal for entertaining and offers a fireside separate space for reading or relaxing. Exquisite master suite is located exclusively on the top floor and backs to the aspens and spruce trees. The primary master suite features a fireplace, walk-in closet, deck and elegant bathroom with steam shower, heated floors, jetted tub and private rear patio for convenient access to the outdoor patio and hot tub. Additional features include a secondary master suite, custom bunk room, large laundry room, ample 2-car garage with space for 2-3 cars on the heated driveway. Owners occasionally rent the property through VRBO as a 5-bedroom (primary master not included). Guest reviews have been wonderful. Rented as a 6-bedroom this property could generate strong revenue. Completely remodeled by a prominent Vail interior designer and sold turn-key.
