Resplendent with the grandeur reminiscent of National Park lodges, Meanwhile Ranch offers an exquisite taste of Western life near Snowmass, the second-largest ski resort in Colorado. Set just 13 miles from Aspen's finest amenities, and ten miles from some of the best dining in the state, this gentlemen's ranch is the ideal family gathering place.

"Meanwhile Ranch is a unique property that cannot be reproduced under today's stringent land use regulations, which makes it a very desirable property," says Gary Feldman, managing partner at Joshua & Co., in Aspen. The property consists of 56-fully-fenced working ranch acres, a new (2011) 7,000-square-foot equestrian facility, three-stall barn with tack room, auto showroom/workship, riding arena, roping pen, silo, hay barn, loafing sheds and more. Senior water rights ensure ample water supply even during the driest of seasons.

The property's harmonic 12,000-square-foot log home features interior design by Kevin Corn of Kevin Corn Design in Los Angeles which honors rustic elegance of National Park lodges built in the 1920s and '30s. Fully equipped to the highest expectations of today's family, the home offers four beedrooms, five full- and two half-baths. A commercial grade kitchen, wine room, library, separate bar, two offices and gracious living spaces, including a 3,000-square-foot great room with stone fireplace and cathedral ceilings, provide a relaxing place to feel at home. The house was designed to be family-friendly with a wing over the three-car garage created specifically to delight today's teenager with home theater, pool table, sunning deck, arcade and privacy. The property also features 2 caretatker apartments, former home sites zoned to build up to a 2,500+ square-foot guest home, and a 1886 settler's cabin fully decorated in tasteful authentic cowboy flare.

"This is a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind property where you fell connected to nature and the grand history of this beautiful state," says Feldman.
