We used to own a property at Foxpine Inn, and loved it!  It is so convenient and great for families with little ones, because the husband and wife can actually take turns skiing without the inconvenience of waiting in the lodge. Copper Mountain is a great ski area and doesn’t get as crowded as a lot of other ski areas.  It is easy to get to right from I-70 .

If you know anyone that might be interested in this condo, the Seller wants it sold!

Yes, it is still possible to build that dream mountain home at a ski area.  One of the latest developments is at Copper Mountain.  This development is called Slopeside.

If you are familiar with Copper Mountain, Slopeside is located in Lewis Ranch and is right next to the Union Creek Chairlift.  There are only thirteen large building envelopes, which are all ski in ski out.   These lots are big enough to build a 5,000-8,000 square foot home.  The master planned community has been approved for a future gondola. 

There is an affiliated construction company that will help you build your high-quality home.  One of the home sites has a  beautiful model home that was featured in the Summit County Parade of Homes.  This particular property won several awards on Best Interior Design and Finishes, Best Kitchen, Best overall floor plan, Best interior decorating, and the list goes on.
