The setting invites a lifestyle increasingly difficult to find in the Roaring Fork Valley--fish from the private trout pond or along Capitol Creek, paddleboard, gather around the campsite, watch wildlife and enjoy the privacy and open space of this special Old Snowmass property. On the pond side of the property, approvals are already in place for a 1,000-square-foot Caretaker Dwelling Unit (CDU) and 500-square-foot garage, providing additional flexibility for future use. With its combination of historic ranch character, exceptional water features, three legal parcels and recreational opportunities, Cookman Ranch is an irreplaceable Old Snowmass offering, all within convenient reach of Aspen and Snowmass Village.
