Marvel at the breathtaking vistas of Vail Mountain and the Gore Range from this contemporary mountain condo perched in the heart of Lionshead Village. Nestled within the vibrant heart of Lionshead Village, Vail 21 Unit 602, by Mountain Vacation Lodging, is an exquisite penthouse condominium with panoramic views, impeccable style, and luxurious quality. Conveniently positioned a mere 150 meters from the Eagle Bahn Gondola and Born Free Express Lift, this ski-in, ski-out retreat includes a living room and den, two outdoor spaces, 3 bedroom suites, state-of-the-art kitchen appliances, and a host of other remarkable features. For an in-depth exploration of this exceptional property, please continue reading.

The Property:
The views are best from the kitchen and dining area, from the upper level den, and from either one of the two outdoor spaces, but even from the living room's chaise lounge sofa, you can enjoy the views while relaxing by a real wood fire and while streaming your favorite media on the large HDTV. The kitchen is fully equipped and outfitted with top-tier appliances from Wolf, Bosch, and Sub Zero, and also features a spacious 45 bottle wine and beverage cooler.

The condo has two levels. Upstairs you'll find the first of three bedroom suites, and what a suite it is! The bedroom area features vaulted ceilings and a large flat screen TV mounted perfectly for viewing from the plush King size bed. The bedroom includes a dedicated workspace for those who need to get a little bit of work done. A rolling barn door creates privacy for the bathroom while tying in perfectly with the bedroom's wood accent wall. The bathroom's shower and vanity are large enough to share, and with a futon in the den, this suite is built to share. Originally this condo had a very large rooftop deck. Now this condo now has a private den and a smaller rooftop deck. Separated from the bedroom area by sliding glass doors and curtains, the den includes a futon, HDTV, vaulted ceilings, and incredible views. Another set of sliding doors provide access to the rooftop balcony, where a bar has been built in. This is the perfect spot for morning coffee or apres ski delights.

Back on the main level of the condo, the second bedroom suite offers another opulent respite. The rustic barnwood wall combines perfectly with the riveted headboard and high end bedding to create a sophisticated style. The Queen size bed fits perfectly and another HDTV is wall mounted for viewing from bed. The ensuite bathroom features a large shower with a rainfall showerhead. The third bedroom could work for another couple, or up to 3 people. It has a bunk bed with a Twin size on top and a Full size bed on the bottom. Like the first two bedrooms, this suite also features a wall mounted HDTV and a beautifully renovated private bathroom.

Amenities:
The condo has many. The wood burning fireplace is certainly a treat. The large HDTVs and free WiFi are certainly nice. We have mentioned the rooftop deck, but there is also a covered balcony off the living room. In addition to fantastic views, it has an outdoor dining table and a gas grill. The condo also has an entry area with coat racks and storage, plus a private washer and dryer. In addition to the condo's private amenities, guests at this property will enjoy access to the building's shared amenities, which include a rooftop hot tub, the elevator, and onsite shops, including a ski rental shop.

Location:
From this condo, access to the slopes is quick and hassle-free with less than 180 meters separating the Vail 21 elevator from the Eagle Bahn Gondola and Chair #8 (the Born Free Express Chairlift). Enjoy shorter lift lines compared to Gondola 1 in Vail Village. Lionshead Village is one of the two base villages for Vail Mountain, a delightful pedestrian-friendly area with heated cobblestone streets. It offers a wealth of amenities including a gourmet market, a charming outdoor ice skating rink, dozens of shops ranging from fine apparel to sports gear and gifts, and many dining options, from casual to 5 star fine dining.
