117 Neale Avenue, Aspen 81611

Tim's Notes

This is a precious, classic 'ole timer' Aspen log cabin built by Aspen's celebrated Aspen Modern architect Fritz Benedict. It has since been beautifully upgraded to modern day living standards and represents a rare and unique opportunity to own an original downtown Aspen cabin walkable to everywhere. I think of this as a "jewel box" - authentically representing Aspen's mining heritage, its mountain sensibility and living. For more information and a showing, please contact Tim at 970-309-6163 or email.
