A successful developer told me not too long ago that every development he purchases has to meet certain criteria. One of his most important rules that governs his business has to do with location. He said to look for the areas where Wal-Mart, Costco, Home Depot and other major players are moving into. The areas nearby will eventually (and almost always) be hot spots for residential real estate. He has a pretty good point.
The owners found this home after wandering beyond a very impressive new commercial development called "The Meadows" in American Fork, UT. What used to be open farm land behind the meadows is now home to only a handful of beautiful new homes. A few savvy developers seeing the opportunity arose to the occasion and actually did a good job.
The original builder of the home has been building in Park City for quite some time now and wanted to build his mountain style home down in Utah valley. This is where he wanted to build a home for his family. He didnt need to be living in the mountains to enjoy them. It was a perfect mesh for him and his family where the mountains and the country meet.
The current owners have painstakingly continued to build on the original contractors vision. Timber beams fill and support the interior. Hand scraped floors shine and adorn the entryway. The vaulted ceilings were strategically designed to make the rooms feel large and inviting. A 7.1 surround sound home theater in the basement fills your entertainment needs. Acid stained floors in the basement give warmth to the nine foot tall ceilings in the basement. A 300 gallon salt water aquarium built into the wall, separates the game and living areas from the basement kitchen areas. This home defines the ultimate in single level living.
The home sits at about 4400 square feet with five wonderful bedrooms, four and a half baths and a massive oversize three car garage. To the east of the home, a major community park is being planned for the community. The view from the master bedroom, the office and the front of the home is breathtaking as it looks over the north end of Utah lake. After the sun goes down, every window has had custom wood shutters installed for the ultimate in privacy.
The home has so many wonderful features and has been cared for by people who have really loved this home. It pains the owners to sell it, but has come time to sell. For more information and for a tour of this home, call Summer at 801-885-6070 or Jon at 801-885-6069.
