Dancing Bear Aspen Welcomes First Owners at Final Collection of Residences at Leading Private Residence Club
Opening of Mountainside building comes on the heels of successful sellout of original Parkside building
ASPEN, Colo., June 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Aspen's leading private residence club, Dancing Bear Aspen – A Timbers Residence Club®, officially opened its second and final set of residences to owners this week. The new Mountainside building features 10 three-bedroom, three-and-a half-bathroom corner residences averaging 1,814 square feet and sold in 1/8th fractional interests starting from $825,000. The building also boasts a stunning 3,200-square-foot fractional ownership penthouse with four bedrooms, four-and-a-half bathrooms and 3,500 square feet of outdoor living space offering one of the largest rooftop decks for a residence in downtown Aspen.
Dancing Bear Aspen takes owner amenities to the next level by introducing a cutting-edge spa concept inspired by the elements of water, earth and air. Working with leading experts in the spa industry, the team will bring to life a Zen Den rejuvenation spa later this year featuring four spaces of tranquility and rejuvenation, including a Float Pod saline floatation tank; an oxygen aromatherapy lounge; a hydro-massage station with beds that offer comforting self-service massage therapy; and a steam chamber with stone recliners for relaxation. Additionally, Mountainside will offer a full-service restaurant and bar, underground parking garage and owner ski locker room.
"We couldn't be more excited to welcome our owners to the Mountainside building and officially introduce the property to the public," said Randall Bone, COO of Sunrise Company. "The Parkside building sold out in less than two years, and with second home and vacation home sales reaching decade highs, we are confident the Mountainside residences will move swiftly as today's buyers increasingly value the benefits of whole ownership and hassle-free living, but at a fraction of the cost."
Owners at Dancing Bear Aspen enjoy year-round resort living in the heart of downtown Aspen, with luxurious amenities and services. Ownership also grants membership in the Timbers Collection, with a host of perks and privileges from travel and lifestyle partners, as well as reciprocity within the Timbers Resorts portfolio of residence clubs worldwide. Dancing Bear Aspen owners also have access to the full suite of amenities housed in the Parkside building, including a private movie theater, fitness facility, wine room and cellar, rooftop lounge and spas, and preferred access to The Monarch restaurant.
Regional architecture firm O'Bryan Partnership, Inc. and Colorado-based design company NCH Design were enlisted to create modern, sleek spaces that echo the contemporary mountain style of the original nine residences in the Parkside building. Each residence is infused with a blue and grey color palette accented by brushed oak floors, woodworking with copper highlights, and leathered marble countertops in the kitchen. All residences feature gourmet kitchens with Wolf appliances while furnishings include Quintus beds and fabrics from Holly Hunt, Kravet and Pindler.
Sunrise Company, with funds and accounts managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., purchased Dancing Bear Aspen in 2012 and partnered with Timbers Resorts to manage the club's real estate sales and marketing operations.
