A rare and historically significant property in the heart of Woody Creek, Lucky Dog Ranch encompasses approximately 43 acres with 2,000 feet of Woody Creek frontage and an extraordinary sense of privacy. The property is the original late-1880s Elkhorn Ranch homestead, established by Jeremie Vagneur, one of the Roaring Fork Valley's early settlers. Four generations of the Vagneur family lived in the historic ranch house, creating a deep connection to the land and a remarkable chapter in Woody Creek's history. The historic main residence has been thoughtfully expanded, with a new addition completed in 2025 that seamlessly brings modern mountain living to the character and spirit of the original homestead. A distinctive collection of additional improvements includes a river cabin, art studio, Whiskey Barn with bunkroom, historic hay barn, and a new 4,060-square-foot horse barn, as well as a four-car garage with an apartment/ADU. Water is one of Lucky Dog Ranch's defining assets. The property benefits from an exceptional portfolio of senior water rights supporting agricultural production, livestock, landscaping, ponds, and domestic use. These senior rights add significant long-term value and distinguish the ranch from many comparable properties. The grounds unfold across open meadows framed by mature crab apple trees, with two ponds--including one stocked with trout--and abundant wildlife throughout the seasons. Solar panels on two structures further complement the property's connection to the land and sustainable character. With expansive meadows, mature landscaping, mountain views, extensive creek frontage, exceptional water rights, and an extraordinary collection of historic and newly constructed improvements, Lucky Dog Ranch represents a rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Woody Creek history. Just 10 minutes from Aspen and 15 minutes from Whole Foods, the ranch offers an exceptional balance of privacy, authenticity, natural beauty, and proximity to everything that makes the Roaring Fork Valley so extraordinary.

Positioned on 4.1 private acres with approximately 450 feet of Roaring Fork River frontage, 57 Liberty Lane is one of the valley's most thoughtfully designed contemporary riverfront properties. Completed in 2009, the residence was designed by Rowland + Broughton in collaboration with design consultant Alex Stark and carefully sited to maximize year-round sunshine, privacy, direct river access, panoramic mountain views, and expansive vistas both upstream and down the Roaring Fork River. 57 Liberty Lane offers the rare combination of exceptional river frontage together with sweeping mountain vistas, a seldom-seen union, with views spanning from Highlands Peak across the Roaring Fork Valley to spectacular western sunsets. The orientation of the home was carefully considered so that the river, surrounding landscape, and mountain backdrop remain central to everyday living. The home offers 3,520 square feet of living space with four bedrooms, three-and-one-half baths, a dedicated home office, and flexible living areas designed around the property's remarkable setting. The 15-foot-ceiling great room opens seamlessly to multiple outdoor gathering spaces and frames uninterrupted river views, while an efficient Rumford wood-burning fireplace provides a natural focal point for the living area. The primary suite enjoys what are arguably some of the finest river views in the Roaring Fork Valley. A flexible main-level bedroom functions equally well as a second office, wellness room, or guest suite, while the lower-level family room provides additional living space overlooking the river. Outdoor living was conceived as a true extension of the home. Two private courtyards, multiple seating and dining areas, a rooftop deck with panoramic mountain views, irrigated gardens, a heritage barn, and a wood-burning fire pit at the river's edge create opportunities to enjoy the property in every season. The gently cleared riverbank provides direct access to approximately 450 feet of private frontage for exceptional trout fishing and recreation. Healthy living and long-term efficiency were central to the home's design. Passive solar orientation, natural adobe floors, radiant in-floor heat, low-VOC and formaldehyde-free materials, and a rooftop active solar thermal system with a 400-gallon storage reservoir work together to provide efficient radiant heat and domestic hot water. The kitchen is equipped with double Bosch wall ovens, dual dishwashers, a Miele gas cooktop, and custom maple cabinetry throughout. Additional features include a five-zone Sonos audio system, a productive 45-gallon-per-minute well, mature landscaping that creates exceptional privacy, and significant future expansion potential with approximately 5,750 square feet of allowable floor area, including the opportunity for an accessory dwelling unit. Properties offering this combination of celebrated contemporary architecture, meaningful private river frontage, panoramic mountain views, solar orientation, privacy, and proximity to Aspen are increasingly rare. 57 Liberty Lane is a home fundamentally designed around its setting, where the Roaring Fork River, the surrounding mountains, and the changing light define the experience of living here.
