I am very excited to feature a fractional ownership opportunity this month at One Willow Bridge Road. This is a fabulous luxury residential development with many resort amenities. It is in the heart of Vail Village – therefore, close to the ski lifts and all of the shops and restaurants in the village.  You will be impressed with the quality and elegance of this property.

The property is available for seven weeks: you get three weeks in the summer, three in the winter and one week to use whenever you want. Basically, you get to enjoy all of the wonderful season that Vail has to offer! Also, you can rent the weeks you don’t use. This two bedroom, two bathroom condo is listed at $595,000. Give me a call at 970-331-1806 to schedule your private showing.

The Lodge at Vail is our community’s landmark hotel. People who buy condos here have all they want in amenities, services and location in the heart of the Vail Village – making this property a true winner in the number one rule of real estate: location, location, location.

If you’re interested in this property as a family getaway, you’ll be pleased. If you’re interested in this property to generate rental revenue, you’ll be very pleased. Either way, it’s a must-see. With over 1,200 square feet, this condo has 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and is listed at $2,250,000. Give me a call at 970-331-1806 to schedule your private showing.

Modeled after a European castle, the Ritz-Carlton Residences in Vail brings the splendor, elegance and magic of a fairy tale to life. It is the newest addition to Vail’s lavish billion-dollar renewal and is expected to be done this month with residents moving in as early as late September.

At last count, 48 of the 71 wholly owned units at the Ritz-Carlton Residences — on the west end of Lionshead— are currently under contract. The other units are expected to close fairly easily given how classy and lavish the property is, the style in which so many of Vail’s second-home owners are seeking.

The complex’s exterior and main entrance looks much like a hotel with a concierge desk and all. This is because the property has many of the same amenities of a hotel yet it is 100 percent residential living (so imagine living with all of your neighbors in a luxury resort – fun and fabulous). Residents will have access to valet parking, ski valet, twice-daily housekeeping, a fitness facility, an outdoor heated pool and two hot tubs, among other amenities.

The Residences doesn’t have a restaurant on site, but does offer a “great room” where residents can relax on cozy couches by fireplaces. There’s also a bar and a library in the great room, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and retreat.

For the kids, there is a “teen room” equipped with everything from a foosball table to a pool table to Wii video-game systems. And for adults, there is a gym/spa facility with a variety of fitness equipment as well as steam rooms, spa rooms, and a yoga studio. With all of this inside, you may never make it outside to hit the slopes!

All of this is very exciting for Vail. Not only is it another great luxury real estate development for families who want to summer or winter in Vail, but it’s nice for us locals to see all the demand that there is for great properties here.

Own Very High Luxury at a Fraction of the Cost

Last month, I highlighted two fractional ownership opportunities in the Vail Valley, one being the Arrabelle Penthouse. This is such a hot property, I just had to mention it again.

• Exclusive amenities, including 10 hours Sentient Private Jet usage, 6 Vail Medallions, and membership in the Arrabelle Club, among others.
• Views of Vail Square and the best of Vail Mountain radiate throughout this 3,500 square-foot residence. Features en suite bathrooms in all of the 4 bedrooms, hardwood flooring and Viking appliances.
