Property Description
Located just 2.5 miles up Castle Creek Road--a quick 8-minute drive to Aspen's world-class dining, skiing, and culture yet worlds away in feel--the nearly 11 acre property is surrounded by Aspen groves, alpine forest, and a network of mulched paths. Adjacent to the property is the Congo Trail which provides access to Highlands ski mountain. The residence is thoughtfully sited to maximize sunlight and capture sweeping views of Ajax Mountain, Red Mountain, Ruthie's Lift, Highlands, and the legendary Highland Bowl.
Designed by Cristof Eigelberger in collaboration with interior designer Elizabeth Stanley, the home is a masterclass in rustic-modern integration and craftsmanship. Carved into a south-facing slope in the Castle Creek Valley, the architecture's low horizontal profile--composed of dry-stacked granite, shou sugi ban, and minimalist blackened steel--appears to emerge organically from the mountainside. Granite spine walls extend into the earth, steel-framed windows by MHB and Ottima pull in abundant natural light, and fractured black flagstone flooring flows effortlessly from the interior to heated outdoor terraces.
Inside, the home is rich with texture, warmth, and material authenticity. Reclaimed oak wraps the walls, ceilings, and floors adding timeless character. A custom plaster, tinted to echo local aspen bark, sets a serene tonal backdrop for a curated collection of contemporary art.
The main living room centers on a commanding granite wood burning fireplace, flanked by sliding walls of glass that open to the terraces. The kitchen is both sculptural and inviting, anchored by a 14-foot oak island and textured black stone, bespoke cabinetry, and Gaggenau appliances. A floating steel plate staircase rises through a double-height volume like a piece of sculpture to a private primary retreat.
The home offers 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, an office, and a surround-sound media room that doubles as the 5th bedroom. Outdoor living spaces are designed for year-round enjoyment, including a private rooftop deck with fire feature off the primary suite, a custom granite spa, a built-in firepit with banquette, and an Argentine-style grill. Green roofs, solar panels, custom lighting design with Lutron controls, and a generous 2.5-car garage elevate both sustainability and convenience.
Landscape architecture by DesignWorkshop seamlessly blends the built environment with its alpine surroundings, creating a timeless conversation between structure and land.
The North Hayden Residence is more than a home--it is a rare, deeply considered mountain retreat where architecture, landscape, and lifestyle come together in perfect harmony. Modern yet timeless, rugged yet refined, it stands as one of Aspen's most extraordinary offerings.
