About This Home

As of June 2025

Like living in a van Gogh painting on top of the world here...This extremely rare, stylish, and private gem sits perched within the only 24 hour guard-gated community in 81611. Located less than 10 minutes to Aspen core, 15 minutes to skiing in Snowmass Village, and only 5 Minutes to the perennial Woody Creek Tavern. This warm, sunny home was designed by the Godfather of mid-century modern architecture Alan Golin Gass (who studied under famed architect I.M. Pei) and sits on 3.68 pristine acres backing up to conserved open space. Panoramic mountain vistas peer through every window and the structure is cleverly situated for no airport/runway visibility from this perfect location. The home itself has been immaculately maintained and the bridge/wing addition was constructed in 1999 with radiant floors throughout. Starwood boasts their own fire department and EMS services, community water supply, security, plowing on all roads, and miles of private hiking trails and open space for only $400 HOA dues annually. No 1% City of Aspen real estate transfer tax at this address (Starwood lies in unincorporated Pitkin County just outside the City limits). This particular estate is a crown jewel of any real estate portfolio and a true intellectual paradise. 623 Johnson is one of only 108 total building sites within the exclusive community and sets the standard for peace and quiet in Aspen. Some neighboring estates within the gates at Starwood trade for nearly $50 million today. The panoramas and serenity from this home at the end of a quiet street need to be seen personally to understand. Refined yet unpretentious; this unique home imbues everything that is Aspen. The existing home or a detached guest house can add 1600 square feet of living space or with new construction build up to 5750 square feet. Also available for monthly lease at $45,000 USD. More community information can be found at starwood.org
