Winter Carnival 2.5 weeks away! Good news to report on the higher end sales in Steamboat. There were 3 Edgemont condos that closed ranging from $1.632-2.564m as well as another One Steamboat Place 1/8th fractional for $605k. These closing illustrate the demand for slopeside luxury and since Steamboat has a fairly small footprint of slopeside opportunities, these are experiencing some healthy interest. Speaking of slopeside properties, the top pick in my mind is still available for $7.995m. Over the Edge is a property to be seen! Pending sales include a fair amount of condos ranging from $125k-300+ as buyers see the opportunity to get into the Steamboat market with declining list prices and hints of interest rate increase on the horizon. If you're coming here for a visit and want to che... 01/17/2010

  This doesn't have much to do with real estate, other than this is just one thing you might expect if you live in Steamboat! It was disclosed that there was a moose in the area, so of course with caution (because they can be super aggressive) a moose hunt ensued. After a short while, the subject was spotted. Big cow laying down eating her curds and whey...then after some disruption from neighborhood dog and snowplow she stood up! Decided for a last chance photo op and then left her alone because she was large and I have many friends that have been charged. Not interested in starting out the new year that way! Snow is falling...real estate opportunities abound...and occasional wildlife viewing! Happy New Year! angela@yoursteamboathome.com 01/03/2010

(view from one of the slopeside units) I had the opportunity to tour the nearly completed Edgemont condominiums at the base area. The developer have done a great job at taking advantage of slopeside views as well as the surrounding views. These luxury condos have been appointed with mountain contemporary finishes and the views are great from every unit. This is truly ski-in ski-out and in some cases a private entrance off of the ski area. The decor is neutral yet rich with many special touches ranging from the doors, tilework, to the cabinetry.
