It was designed & created by Gregory ‘Skip’ Gozzo, who has been nationally recognized for over 25 years as one of the nation’s leading estate builders of ultra high end luxury homes. It has been featured on VH1’s “Celebrity Real Estate Splurges” as one of the top 4 estates for sale in the US. There aren’t any properties in Aspen this close to town on a 2 acre flat building envelope w/out airplane noise or views obstructed by neighboring homes. The flat building envelope allowed a 300 ft wide estate w/out any steps on either level, & the grand lawn spaces w/lush landscaping & water features created a superb design for entertaining w/views overlooking thousands of acres of pastures & mountains” (Photos courtesy of Aspen Snowmass Sothebys).
