The community of Sun Valley, at an altitude of 5,750 feet, has been considered one of the most highly regarded alpine ski resorts in America since 1936, when the first ski lift in North America was built there. Located above the exclusive neighborhood of Gimlet, just a few minutes south of Ketchum, this expansive 214-acre estate sits atop a mountain, overlooking gorgeous Bald Mountain and beyond. This one-of-a-kind private sanctuary is Sun Valley’s most exclusive property and is ideal for the ski enthusiast and nature lover, with miles of private hiking trails and abundant native wildlife. This magnificent home includes, among other amenities, a spacious and welcoming main house, a large two-bedroom detached guesthouse, a separate caretaker’s quarters, and a heated driveway. The estate is notable because it is completely sheltered from neighboring properties for ultimate privacy and solitude, and its guest facilities and ample bedrooms make it ideal for entertaining year-round. Only a 10-minute drive to the ski resort, the estate is also close to the thriving community of Sun Valley and its host of galleries, shops, film festivals, and concerts. Modern construction and multiple outdoor patio areas enhance the home’s livability in both winter and summer seasons. 10,072-square-foot residence on 214 acres.
