French entertainer Claudine Long is selling her Aspen property for $60 million. Description similar to that of an agent.

This summer, a 5.4-acre lot was put up for sale in the private community of Red Mountain Ranch, located near downtown Aspen, Colorado, for $80 million. If it had sold at that inflated price, it would have set a new record as the most expensive home ever sold in the wealthy and notoriously high-priced Rocky Mountain resort. Unfortunately, no buyer was willing to break that record, and the price of the lot was reduced by 25%, reaching a still staggering amount of $59.5 million.

The description of the property in the marketing materials reads as "the last great estate in Aspen," a modest lot that "offers seclusion, luxury, and stunning views of the Aspen and Sopris mountains." In addition to the main house, which features three bedrooms and three bathrooms over approximately 3,500 square feet, there is also a studio/guest house of about 1,400 square feet with another bedroom and bathroom, as well as a separate two-car garage. The main house is located near a small private pond.

The main house, with two stories covered by a green metal roof and clad in wood, overlooks a vast area and a tiled patio situated above a lawn strewn with boulders that slopes down to a private pond, beyond which the Rocky Mountains rise. The guest house, which also features a patio with stunning mountain views, is located in a secluded part of the property among mature dwarf alders and aspens.

Beautiful and attractive at any time of year, with a gentle river flowing through it, this picturesque parcel has the potential to be divided into several parts, according to proposals from Lex Tarumianz of Aspen Snowmass Sotheby's International Realty and Brian Hazen of Coldwell Banker Mason Morse.

Tax records show that the parcel belongs to French artist Claudine Longet, who is now in her 80s. Longet became popular in show business in the early 1960s when she married singer Andy "Mr. Christmas" Williams. During her career, she released numerous albums and appeared in many television shows and films, including Blake Edwards' 1968 film "The Party," where she performed the romantic song "Nothing to Lose." After her separation from Williams in 1970, Longet moved to Aspen, where she has lived a quiet life among the snowy elite of the world of skiing since she was convicted of the accidental killing of her then-boyfriend, former Olympic skier Spider Sabich, in 1977. She later married local attorney Ron Austin, who represented her in court. The couple has long owned a home in Hawaii.
