Be it the utilization of renewable power, self-sufficiency, state-of the-art technologies, high insulation, or the LEED-compliance, the New York Lode at Aspen has it all for those desiring a green lifestyle. The multimillion-dollar, 3,600-square-foot house is a completely off the grid construction where geothermal energy, solar power, domestic water system, waste treatment, and back-up gas fired heating and electric generation systems find the maximum exposure.
Architect Dean Moffett made sure that he makes the most of the mansion that he bought from his friend, Stirling “Buzz” Cooper. His dream eco-house, situated 10,000 feet above the sea level, employed his eco-architectural expertise. It touts photovoltaics for all power needs, high R-value structural insulated panel envelope, recycled-content steel and copper roofing & trim, commercial-grade R-7.4 curtain wall system, double low-E glazed, high altitude windows, energy saving lighting and control systems, Energy Star appliances, low and zero–VOC paints, plaster & stains, and FSC–certified Tigerwood decks.
That’s not all since it offers ski, cross-country, or snowboarding at the Little Annie’s recreation area. If you feel like owning it, you can start bidding for it at $5,675,000 only. The sales price includes a snowmobile or Snocat and a helicopter-landing site.
