515 Park, Aspen, Colorado

Description

ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE! This home offers enhanced breathability, moisture regulation, fire resistance and a natural, healthy indoor environment. Sustainable building methods integrated with traditional lime plaster on the interior and exterior walls allows for moisture to pass through preventing moisture build-up, mold and fungal growth. The straw bale and post and beam construction enriches the beauty of this contemporary home. All 3-levels enjoy a spacious and open floor plan with natural light throughout. Well-placed windows maximize daylight throughout the day reducing the need for artificial lighting and creates a more energy efficient and inviting setting. All countertops and all interior and exterior window sills are finished with Colorado Buff stone from Lyons, Colorado. The lower walk-out level features an earthen floor made from compacted earth, clay, sand and straw...beautiful, natural and sustainable! Plenty of open space and terraced grounds surrounded by healthy, mature trees, and breathtaking views of Mt. Sopris, Red Mountain, Aspen Mountain and Smuggler Mountain. Fifteen-minute walk to the center of Aspen!
