About 979 Queen St

A Rare Riverfront Opportunity in Downtown Aspen. Situated at the end of a quiet street, this south-facing property offers a front-row seat to the sights and sounds of the Roaring Fork River—flowing just steps from the door. It's a rare combination: riverfront serenity with walkable access to Aspen's vibrant downtown core. The existing home echoes the charm of a bygone era, the classic Aspen ski chalet. The choice is yours: embrace the existing home's character or start anew with the included Demolition Permit.
