This sweet, robin’s egg blue 2 bedroom, 2 bath mixed-use property iwas built in 1886. It’s currently home to the Aspen Center for Cosmetic Medicine. It’s listed at $3,300,000, which gets you 2,700-square-feet of hardwood floors and walls, and spacious rooms.

629 West Smuggler St.

It’s hard to believe this contemporary-looking West End Victorian stunner was built in 1888; the spacious, open, clean-lined interiors are to die for. Five bedrooms, 4.5 baths, 4,756-square-feet can be yours for a mere $8,900,000.

Holy hardwood! In keeping with Aspen’s fondness for renovating historic homes into contemporary masterpieces, this 5 bedroom, 5 full/3-half bath home packs in a home theater, elevator, and wood ceilings, and radiant heat into 5,359-square-feet. There’s also a detached 1 bedroom guest cottage, and an adjacent 6,000-square-foot lot. Built in 1890, it’s now a whopping $12,000,000 in Aspen’s desirable West End.

We luuuuurve this 1882 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath just off Elk Avenue. It’s got a weathered, barn-like exterior thanks to post-and-beam construction, with reclaimed heart pine floors. At just 1,334-square-feet and $725,000, it’s perhaps one of the best deals in ski country, and comes fully furnished. Sigh.

470 West Colorado Ave.

If you know Telluride at all, you know this Pepto-pink classic ski house on the main drag. In need of some serious TLC, this 1892, 2 bedroom, 1 bath fixer-upper is pricey at $1,725,000 and 1,336-square-feet, but it’s the last of a dying breed, especially in this town. Save it, and save the ski bum lifestyle.

114 South Townsend St.

Described as a “development project” on an oversized double lot, this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath, 2,114-square-foot home also boasts a 252-square-foot non-rated guest cabin. It’s not much to look at, but at $1,525,000 in downtown Telluride, it’s one hell of an investment.

275 Maple St.

This stately, 1850 6 bedroom, 6.5 bath, 6,134-square-foot home has been carefully restored with brick floors, a 3-car heated garage, and views of Mt. Mansfield. At $1,495,000 in Stowe Village proper, it’s an absolute steal.

38 Sunset St.

Classic Stowe, from the wideboard pine floors and cabinetry, wood stove, and old-timey tiled bathroom to the wooden ceilings and weathered walls. Built in 1850, this 4,108-square-foot 6 bedroom, 4 bath home in the Village boasts a main house, and separate cottage with 2 apartments. Flawlessly maintained, and just $695,000. Yes, please.

2827 Stowe Hollow Rd.

This little 1850 country estate- one of the original “Stowe Hollow” farmhouses- is just 3,127-square-feet and meticulously renovated with pine floors, stonework, and whitewashed exteriors, and new kitchen. There’s also a studio with vaulted ceiling, loft, and kitchen, and outside, a pond and outdoor shower. Pretty sweet, for just $650,000.
