This dramatic stone estate is set on eight acres overlooking Aspen, with ski out access to Buttermilk Mountain -- home of the X Games, ESPN's annual extreme winter sports showcase.

Some of the home's noteworthy features include 28-foot ceilings embellished with cherry wood trim, heated floors, an elevator, built-in surround sound speakers and a snowmelting system at the front and back entrances as well as the garage, which means no shoveling.

The master bedroom suite offers everything you need to recuperate from a hard day on the halfpipe, including a sitting room, kitchenette and separate his-and-her baths. There is a Jacuzzi tub set in an alcove under a large picture window that features dramatic views of Aspen, Buttermilk and Hunter Creek Valley.
