Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1993
Hello and thank you for visiting my property profile. My name is Barry Cox and I invite you to be my guest. I have provided all the comforts and then some, for you to make yourself at home during your stay.
I am originally from Springfield, Missouri. I have lived in Manhattan Beach, CA., Telluride, CO. and now am a permanent resident of Aspen, CO. My need to be outdoors and thirst for adventure has me traveling most of the time now. I fly a Piper Malibu as my main mode of transportation logging over 7,500 hours. I also enjoy skiing, road/dirt biking, hiking, sailing and scuba diving.
Why the Owner Chose Aspen
I was drawn to Aspen back in 1968 while vacationing in college then returned on my honeymoon in 1969. I especially liked the people. Of course, everyone expects the winters to be fantastic and they are for skiing and snowmobiling, but the summers are equally as good. I make the most of them road/dirt biking, mountain biking, paragliding, hiking, rollerblading, tennis and fly-fishing. Aspen is a perfect all year around destination.
The Unique Benefits of this Penthouse
There is great dining and entertainment just step outside the front door. I particularly enjoy Jimmy’s an American Restaurant & Bar, Cache Cache, Campo de Fiori for Italian, Pinons for fine dining, Krabloonik for game, and the Pine Creek Cookhouse is perfect for a sleigh ride or cross country skiing through the snow covered forest. The Penthouse is located in downtown Aspen within walking distance to 10-15 restaurants. The gondola to Aspen Mountain is 2 blocks away. Shuttle stop access to Snowmass and Aspen Highlands is around the corner by McDonald’s.
