Billionaire couple lists most expensive home in US for sale. See price.

The most expensive home in the United States is officially on the market, and it’ll cost whoever purchases it a whopping $300 million.

The over 27,000 square foot, 74.1-acre estate is located at 161 Stillwater Drive in Aspen, Colorado, and it includes 18 bedrooms, 20 full bathrooms and four partial bathrooms, according to the listing by Sotheby’s International Realty.

The property, named “Little Lake Lodge” in the listing, was built in 1994. According to The Aspen Times, the home was built by California billionaires Stewart and Lynda Resnick, who co-own The Wonderful Company, a $6 billion private company that grows, harvests, bottles, packages and markets an array of health-focused products, including FIJI Water and POM Wonderful.

According to Pitkin County property records reviewed by USA TODAY, the Wonderful Company is listed as the owner of the residence.

Sotheby’s lists Little Lake Lodge as the most expensive home for sale in the United States, with a property in Long Lake, New York coming in second with a price tag of $125 million.

Here is what to know about the single-family home, including the annual property taxes its eventual new owner will be paying.

According to the home’s listing, it “borders public land, yet downtown Aspen is a mere mile away.” The residence also sits beside a “pristine, private lake” that is “amid thoughtfully chosen native landscaping and preserved wild flora.”

“Given its exceptional scale with four parcels of land, Little Lake Lodge represents the opportunity to establish an enduring legacy of luxury and harmony with a majestic natural setting—an opportunity unlikely to occur again in the great Mountain West,” the listing says.

Mandy Welgos, the Sotheby’s International Realty broker associate who is the listing agent for the property, told The Aspen Times that the high asking price is attributed to the home’s many features, including the four parcels of land, its proximity to downtown Aspen, the private six-acre lake it sits beside, its privacy, 45 parking spaces and the trail system near it that is “built for hiking, cross country skiing, and biking.”

Welgos added that there are currently multiple interested parties since the home was listed for sale earlier this month. Despite the home’s high value, she told the outlet the property may continue to appreciate for its new owners, especially with the restrictions on the size of homes allowed in Pitkin County.
