Wake each morning to breathtaking mountain vistas and end each day beneath spectacular Colorado sunsets from this exceptional mountain chalet overlooking the rolling Emma ranchlands. Perfectly positioned to embrace the beauty of every season, this inviting retreat offers a rare combination of privacy, comfort, and effortless access to the Roaring Fork Valley.

The dramatic great room welcomes you with soaring vaulted ceilings, a striking stone fireplace, and walls of south-facing windows that bathe the home in natural light while framing ever-changing panoramic views of the entire Elk Mountain range! Rich cherry hardwood floors, custom wrought-iron railings, and timeless finishes create a warm mountain elegance throughout.

Designed for gathering, the custom kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and an open flow to the living and dining areas, making it equally suited for intimate evenings or lively entertaining. Step outside onto the expansive wraparound deck and breathe in the crisp mountain air.

Relax in the new hot tub beneath a canopy of stars, or simply savor the quiet beauty of a landscape that borders more than 4,500 acres of Colorado State Wildlife Area, where open space and wildlife become part of everyday life. Each bedroom offers the comfort and privacy of its own en-suite bath.

A spacious main-level office or den with a sleeper sofa provides flexibility for guests and, with new blinds installed in 2025, can easily serve as a fourth bedroom. Multiple walk-in closets and generous storage complete the home's thoughtful design. An oversized two-car garage provides year-round convenience, while nearby hiking trails begin just beyond your doorstep.

Ideally situated just 20 minutes from Snowmass Village, 30 minutes from Aspen and Glenwood Springs, and only 1.2 miles from Willits Town Center with its restaurants, boutiques, Whole Foods Market, medical services, the Crown Mountain dog park, tennis courts and walking trails, and The Arts Campus at Willits. A place where expansive skies, mountain serenity, and refined living come together--this is Colorado at its most inspiring.
