This wonderful property in Snowmass Village is waiting for its next owner. Dubbed the Wildcat Ranch, it is as staggering as it is vast, an estate “practically custom-built for failed dictators or drug kingpins looking to recuse themselves and their fortune from their international worries in a tony American ranch deep in the woods … of a glitzy ski town.” Priced at a mind-boggling $50 million, the Wildcat Ranch gets you away from noise and pollution.
The property occupies around 504 private acres of pristine greenery, in Snowmass Villa, and consists of a main residence, guest house, pastures, ponds with water rights, breathtaking panoramas, stunning outdoor spaces and, quite surprisingly, a barn. In addition, the main residence of the Wildcat Ranch covers no less than 23,000 square feet if unfolded, spanning over three elegant hardwood floors. The mansion further divides into 4 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms and 3 half bathrooms.
Some of the amenities which have caught my eye are the vaulted ceilings, state of the art, fully endowed kitchen, family rooms, informal and formal living room rooms and his or her master bathrooms matching the interior design. There also are, of course, some very necessary spots for relaxation and enjoyment, like multiple offices, game room, three-tiered movie theater with individual couches, large exercise room, massage room and indoor spa with sunken hot tub. Outside, there are further specialized spots like wood-burning fireplace, fire pit and 6-car garage, summing up at 2,532 square feet.
And ultimately there’s the guest house, covering 2,680 square feet in total and featuring 2 bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, air conditioning, a 2-car garage measuring 503 square feet and wood burning fireplace. The barn features five stalls and was built on two levels, up to 5,232 square feet in surface.
It comes endowed with riding arena, bathroom, two additional bedroom suites and washing stall. Be thankful we won’t be expanding any topic regarding the plethora of activities one can do here – here’s a short list: biking, skiing, hiking, fishing, horseback riding, boating etc.
