Arvin Haddad takes us on a journey through a jaw-dropping $100 million Aspen property, but hold on to your hats because there are three red flags waving frantically in the Colorado breeze. Nestled on Aspen Mountain, this estate boasts ski-in, ski-out access, a history of hosting the rich and famous, and a hefty price tag making it the priciest property in the state. However, Arvin doesn't hold back in pointing out the glaring issues with this luxurious abode.
From the unique standalone elevator to the lack of a driveway and an unappealing design, Arvin uncovers the flaws that could make any potential buyer think twice. As he guides us through the 10 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, and grand foyer with double-height ceilings, it becomes clear that this property may not be worth its hefty price tag. The design missteps continue into the main entertainment spaces, where a poorly executed bar and living area leave much to be desired.
Arvin doesn't stop there, delving into the skiing scene at Aspen Mountain and cautioning against inexperienced skiers taking on its challenging slopes. As he critiques the formal dining room and internal kitchen, likening them to a corporate hotel, the disconnect between the property's price and its design becomes even more apparent. Despite the stunning views and luxurious amenities, this Aspen property falls short in meeting the expectations of a discerning buyer.
