REDSTONE, Colo. (September 4, 2020) Coldwell Banker Mason Morse Real Estate, a leading luxury real estate firm in the Roaring Fork Valley, has announced that it has listed Redstone Castle, one of Colorados most significant historical and architectural landmarks.

Listed by Chris Souki and Jeff Bier, the iconic 153-acre property is situated in the town of Redstone, known as the Ruby of the Rockies, about 15 miles outside of Carbondale and 48 miles from Aspen. In addition to the castle, the acreage contains a carriage house, garages and horse arena, plus early water rights and the right to build 20,000 square feet of additional cabins or cottages in private, wooded areas on the grounds. Early water rights are a priceless amenity in Pitkin County, guaranteeing extensive irrigation and lush settings for events and gatherings.

Perched on the edge of the Crystal River and surrounded by dramatic red cliffs, cascading waterfalls and 100-year-old pine trees, Redstone Castle has maintained a towering presence in Colorado history. The iconic Tudor-style mansion was built by coal magnate John Cleveland Osgood in 1902 and became a beloved hunting and gaming destination for Americas most powerful dignitaries of the day, including Teddy Roosevelt, J.P. Morgan and the Rockefellers. The castle is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The property was fully restored in 2018 by its current owners. With visions of returning the castle to its original glory, they took meticulous care to preserve the 42-room, 24,000 square-foot home, bringing into the modern era with all new bathrooms, updated kitchen and infrastructure. The renovated interiors today reflect the same air of European opulence from a century ago: leather embossed walls, Tiffany-designed chandeliers, aluminum leaf ceilings and frieze, linen-lined walls by Italian artists and 14 fireplaces with imported marble and tile. The Osgood coat of arms, carved in stone with a lion holding a sheath of wheat, guards the two-story fireplace in the grand reception room. Much of the original furniture, adorned in finely carved rare woods with elegant brocades and leather, still grace the rooms. There are 11 bedroom suites, a reception hall, a formal dining room, a library, a drawing room, a music parlor, a game room and a sun porch, which offers beautiful year-round views of wide-open space and lawn. The palatial mansion offers a rare glimpse into the style and culture of Americas elite at the turn of the century.

Redstone Castle is one of the most regal and oldest mansions in the Colorado Rockies, said Chris Souki with Coldwell Banker Mason Morse. Its a true piece of history. The irreplaceability of the castle, combined with the acreage, pristine setting and value created through the mindful stewardship of the current owners, make this property an incredible opportunity.

Cradled between two Wilderness Areas and two National Forests, Redstone Castle offers unparalleled access to the high country and year-round outdoor recreation, including hiking, horseback riding, hunting, private fishing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, Nordic and backcountry skiing. The property enjoys over 2,000 feet of prime frontage along the Crystal River, one of the last undammed rivers in the State of Colorado.

Having been involved with and observed Redstone Castle over the last 50 years, I can say that the castle and the acreage are in the best condition that they have ever been, said Jeff Bier, also with Coldwell Banker Mason Morse. You dont need to lift a finger. The property is in incredible shape.
