521 E Lionshead Circle # 405,Vail, CO 81657
Vail, CO 81657
Description
Few Vail residences offer a single fourth-floor view of the ski slopes of Vail Village, Golden Peak, and the Gore Range. Fewer still pair that view with a turnkey, beautifully renovated interior, a documented short-term rental record, and a central position in Lionshead Village as Vail prepares to build its next base village just to the west. 521 E. Lionshead Circle #405 is one of them. Set in the heart of Lionshead Village, the residence opens to a southeast vantage above the rooftops. The Eagle Bahn Gondola and Born Free Express chairlift sit a short walk from the door, the pedestrian-only village extends in every direction, and the free Town of Vail In-Town Shuttle stops just outside the building every 5-10 minutes, carrying you to Vail Village and Golden Peak with skis or without. One assigned parking space, with the Lionshead Parking Structure immediately adjacent. Inside, a great room centered on a wood-burning fireplace opens to the balcony and a kitchen with slab granite, stainless appliances, glass subway tile backsplash, and ski-slope views. Travertine bathrooms with frameless European glass showers, all-new cabinetry, millwork, and doors, and wood floors reflect a comprehensive renovation and a 2014 building-wide exterior and window replacement. Operated as a short-term rental, the residence generated approximately $98K in 2025 revenue with 76% ski-season occupancy at an $855 average daily rate. Short-term rentals are permitted with a strong rental history at Vail 21. Looking forward, Vail Resorts, the Town of Vail, and East West Partners (Beaver Creek, Bachelor Gulch, Denver's Riverfront Park) announced a partnership in late 2024 to develop West Lionshead into Vail Mountain's fourth base village. When it rises just to the west, #405 will sit at the center of Vail's three-village axis. Elevator building. Top-floor hot tub. Quarterly dues include heat, cable, internet, utilities, snow removal, and insurance.
