A HISTORIC SALE IN VAIL'S PREMIER LOCATION: MILL CREEK CIRCLE

Vail, Colorado, is known for its breathtaking mountain views, world-class skiing, and luxurious properties. Among its most exclusive addresses is Mill Creek Circle, a neighborhood with a history as rich as its real estate values. Recently, a remarkable transaction took place here, facilitated by the Denton Advisory Group – Craig, Kyle, and Kevin Denton. 

 

THE LEGACY OF MILL CREEK CIRCLE

Mill Creek Circle stands as Vail’s most sought-after location, featuring just 18 exclusive homesites, all originally purchased in the 1960s by the visionary investors of Vail Associates Ski Company. Situated mere steps from the Gondola and Vail Village, this community offers unparalleled access to the very heart of Vail's vibrant lifestyle.

One of the most intriguing aspects of this neighborhood is its deep historical connection to horse racing royalty. The original home on this particular site was built by Jack & Penny Tweedy, the owners of Secretariat, the legendary Triple Crown-winning racehorse. This remarkable connection adds to the unique charm and allure of Mill Creek Circle. 

 

THE 40-YEAR JOURNEY OF A LANDMARK POPERTY

In January 1984, close friends of the Denton’s — whom Craig’s wife had the pleasure of teaching skiing to for over a decade — purchased this iconic property through Craig Denton for $900,000. At the time, this was considered a significant investment in one of Vail’s prime locations.

Fast forward 40 years to the exact month, and the property has now been sold once again, this time closing at an incredible $26,000,000, translating to a staggering $3,846 per square foot. This sale is not just a financial success; it underscores the enduring prestige and desirability of Mill Creek Circle. 

 

A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS

Over the years, the previous owners invested in rebuilding and enhancing the home to match the evolving luxury standards of Vail. Now, with the property changing hands once again, the new owner plans to level the existing home and build anew, adding their vision to this already storied address.

This continuous cycle of redevelopment is a testament to the enduring appeal of Mill Creek Circle and the ever-growing demand for elite mountain properties in Vail. 

 

CONCLUSION

The sale of this prestigious Mill Creek Circle property is more than just a transaction; it is a story of history, passion, and vision. Congratulations to all involved in this record-setting sale, and we look forward to seeing the next chapter unfold in this exclusive enclave.
