Any good way come to mind to cover what I understand as two points here: I (officially) request you answer me, and I look forward to your esteemed response...?
...and does "esteemed" sound ridiculous?

ridiculous ...
Yes, I would say it does sound rather over the top. I'd write something like (depending on how over the top you need to go on this)
"Please (be so kind as to) [briefly] confirm receipt of this [letter], and I look forward to receiving your response.
Best regards,
xxx"

Actually, it isn't specifically requesting confirmation (my bad), so I think you could get away with a simple "I look forward to receiving your response/hearing from you."

Then "Y.s,"
And personally, I wouldn't use esteemed - it does sound odd...
