Throughout the summer, Colorado’s high country attracts day-trippers, second homeowners, and vacationers from around the world. But the busiest and most festive weekend of the season is the Fourth of July, when thousands of visitors will be celebrating America’s independence and 250th Anniversary with small-town parades, live music, and fireworks (fire restrictions pending).
For those seeking a little quiet time in some of the resorts’ most magnificent homes, there is LIV Sotheby’s International Realty’s Paint the Town Blue, an open house showcase on Sunday, July 5, in the Vail Valley, Summit County, Telluride, and Crested Butte.
Tour an extraordinary collection of properties and picture yourself making a life in the mountains. From the convenience of slopeside condominium living to the privacy of some of Colorado’s most exclusive communities, luxury living is in the eye of the beholder.
And what could be more luxurious than 270-degree views of the Vail Valley’s Castle Peak, Flat Tops, and Brush Creek Valley from 891 E. Haystacker Drive in Eagle? Designed by Kasia Karska, “Sol Vista” is a 5,444-square-foot home with an additional 2,444 square feet of exterior living space, including a wraparound deck.
If you’re searching for convenience and community, 485 East Colorado Avenue could be the perfect fit. Located in the heart of Telluride and enveloped in a park-like setting with mature trees and panoramic mountain views, this property sits just steps from Town Park and the vibrancy of downtown.
While Colorado’s resorts are destinations for skiing, hiking and biking, 217 Fly Line Drive offers rare waterfront living in Silverthorne. This stunning Angler Mountain Ranch home sits directly on a private, stocked pond with walk-out access for fishing, paddleboarding, and kayaking right from your backyard.
Architectural buffs and forest-bathers alike will revel in 796 Red Mountain Ranch Lower Loop Road, which has garnered national awards. Affectionately dubbed “The Tree House,” this sanctuary pairs rustic elegance with the solace of 35 elevated acres of aspen grove and views of Mt. Crested Butte, the East River Valley, and the Elk Mountain horizon.
