Description
Nestled in a secluded, gated community at the foot of the majestic Cottonwood Canyons, this rare two-acre property offers the perfect blend of privacy, craftsmanship, and potential. With convenient access to nearby amenities and the freeway, it provides both seclusion and connectivity.
Originally envisioned as a gatehouse for a 38,000 sq ft estate on 14 acres, this exquisitely crafted home stands as a testament to unmatched artisanal skill. Designed by renowned architect David Easton, the Cape Dutch-style cottage features an authentic thatched roof—an architectural rarity—and extraordinary attention to detail throughout.
Inside, custom millwork, hand-forged hardware, and elegant marble bathrooms showcase the dedication poured into every inch of the home. The great room boasts handcrafted beams and expansive windows framing panoramic views of Mt. Olympus and Big Cottonwood Canyon, opening seamlessly to a lush, private garden.
Upstairs, two-bedroom suites—each with its own fireplace and en-suite bath—offer a serene and luxurious retreat. Additional features include vaulted ceilings with intricate woodwork, a kitchenette, wet bar, and built-ins throughout. The unique cobbled Sally Port leads to a heated garage and workshop, while a beautifully restored historic barn adds a touch of rustic charm.
Behind two private gates, this one-of-a-kind estate offers room for future expansion or creative development—making it a truly flexible legacy property. The lore of the carpenter who lived on-site in a sleeping bag for over a year speaks to the passion and dedication behind the home's construction.
