Property Description
This legacy estate is one that must be experienced to be fully understood. Combining award-winning architecture that blurs the line between art and real estate with an irreplaceable natural setting, it is truly unlike anything else on the market. Spanning fourteen private acres along nearly one-half mile of exclusive Arkansas River frontage, the property is composed of nine thoughtfully designed structures capable of accommodating up to twenty-one guests. Perfectly suited for multi-generational living, large family retreats, or unforgettable gatherings, the estate somehow manages to feel both expansive and deeply intimate at the same time. Surrounded by endless trails, towering mountain views, and the unmatched serenity of nature, this is an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise. Spend your days relaxing to the sound of the river from one of the cabins positioned closer to the Arkansas than current building regulations would allow today. Discover countless picturesque locations throughout the property to unwind, reflect, or entertain while taking in panoramic views of the surrounding valley and peaks. A small horse facility allows for horseback riding directly from the property onto nearby trails and country roads, adding yet another layer to the experience. Designed, owned & meticulously maintained by a renowned architect and his family for nearly five decades, this extraordinary compound is being offered for sale for the first time since construction began on the original structure. Its history and soul can be felt in every pathway, every hand-crafted detail, and every carefully framed view. Scandinavian, European, and historic mining influences are woven seamlessly throughout the architecture, creating an environment that is both rugged and refined. This is a property that inspires artists, captivates adventurers, and creates romance for anyone willing to slow down and embrace its magic. Opportunities to own a legacy estate of this caliber are truly rare.
