Edgemont resale prices on the rise but still a bargain in comparison to the height of Steamboat’s real estate market
Monday, January 26, 2015
Edgemont developers Bear Paw LLC had 3 residences for sale early in 2014 and all closed as of May 2014. January of 2015, there are 3 active resales with prices from $699,000 for a 1 bedroom to $3,600,000 for one of the best ski in / out condos Edgmont has to offer - a 5 bed, 4.5 bath with decks on three sides. The condo residence #2201 was purchased from the original developers in December of 2010 for $3,224,000. The views overlooking the ski area combined with south valley views over the swimming pool and private slopeside access is why this condo was priced at a premium in 2008 for $4,956,000.
If you are doing the math, the price for a 5 bedroom Edgemont condo with ski in access is up by 10% from late 2010, but the current list price is still down 27% from their pricing at the height of our market in late 2007 - early 2008.
Ski in isn’t the only selling point at Edgemont, summers in Steamboat are even better when hanging out in their pool. My wife shot the photo to the left during our visit in summer 2013 with family. I think there was one other person in the pool our entire 2 day stay.

Low HOAs, quality finishes, fabulous views and close to skiing, Sunray Meadows 709 is a great value
Tuesday, January 20, 2015
When you shop for a condo near the ski slopes in Steamboat Springs with 2 or more bedrooms that has a garage and lower HOA dues (under $4300 per year), your choices are slim - especially priced under $340,000. Sunray Meadows #709 just 2 blocks to the east of Steamboat Ski Resort, may just be your only choice right now in that price point.
The last sale was at $300,000 for a much lower quality finished condo lacking views. Meanwhile, the owners of #709 recently invested over $40,000 in quality upgrades and are asking $339,000.
In 2014 there were 12 sales at Sunray Meadows with high sale of $315,000. Here is a list of the active listings at Sunray Meadows condominiums.

Fourteen of the the Buyers were represented by Colorado Group Realty Real Estate Brokers which includes the log home pictured - listed for $1,989,450 and sold for $1,909,500 in July 2014.

In the past 15 years or so living in town, I have only had a couple thefts of items from the front yard of our home which is on the core trail leading to downtown. One of which was our baby stroller. My guess is it must have been someone borrowing it to give someone a ride home.
