SOLARIS PENTHOUSE FW

Preeminent on the top floor of Solaris, this extraordinary mountain residence in downtown Vail Village is a spacious getaway with unmatched convenience and amenities. This three-bedroom, seventh-floor condominium boasts a western exposure, overlooking the ski mountain and Lionshead gondola, perfectly capturing the Rocky Mountain sunset every evening.

Its position on the top floor allows for vaulted ceilings throughout the home. With an abundant living space, the residence consists of an open floor plan, perfect for entertaining guests and gathering with family. The living room features hand-trailed Venetian plaster walls, beach hardwood floors and a Telluride masonry stone fireplace. It blends effortlessly into a dining area and kitchen, which touts mist black granite countertops, Wolfe/Sub Zero appliances and wine storage. A few steps off the living room is a private, isolated den, which could be utilized as a small media lounge, kids’ playroom, study or even a fourth bedroom for overflow company.

Each of the three bedrooms is nicely proportioned with vaulted ceilings. Featuring a private balcony, the master bedroom takes advantage of the home’s western exposure and ski-hill views. It contains three closets for ample storage and an elaborate master bathroom with floor-to-ceiling vaulted windows (plus shades for privacy). The bright, five-fixture master bathroom also features marble slab countertops, limestone finishes, a deep-soaking tub and private water closet.

The home’s technology is state of the art and unrivaled among Vail Village properties. Crestron Home Automation controls lighting, climate and audio, as well as communications with the front desk. Radiant heated floors and forced air conditioning are propelled by equipment in the garage, which avoids occupying square footage within the residence.

Amenities of Solaris ownership include on-site, 24-hour concierge, bellman and valet services, indoor pool, hot tub and a private spa with treatment facility. Solaris is no more than a 10-minute walk from the base of the ski mountain and Gondola One; yet, a slopeside locker is included with each residence and transportation to the hill can be easily arranged. Some of Vail’s most luxurious shops, galleries and restaurants, namely Matsuhisa, a Nobu establishment, reside within the building itself. Solaris amenities also include the posh CineBistro Movie Theater and Bol, one of the world’s swankiest and most elaborate bowling allies. These attractions surround the outdoor ice rink and the iconic Water Tree light sculpture a centerpiece not only of Solaris Plaza but of Vail itself.
