1768 E. Auburn Ridge Lane | Before & After
We love a challenge. When 1768 E. Auburn Ridge Lane hit the market we knew that despite the incredible bones, it would be a tough sell with dated decor. Sure enough, after a brief trial period we were elated to help the sellers take a different approach.
After looking at comparable homes for sale, crunching some numbers, and discovering that with a little TLC we could not only update a beautiful home but help the homeowner make extra money on their sale, we decided together to go forward with a facelift project. While keeping the sellers informed and in charge of all the final decisions, we were on the ground managing the remodel process from beginning to end. They were able to focus on other things in their life while we handled the arrangement. You see, that’s really what we’re all about — we’re not just people you hire to push the paperwork around, plant a sign in the yard, and post a few pics to the online listing service and calling it good. Nope. Not our gig. We’re in it with you, and if there’s an opportunity to make a bold move, we’ll let you know about it.
The result? After a few weeks of work, the home was back on the market and quickly under contract. We helped curate a house that we think is a sweet spot to call home for holidays. We’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
The kitchen, not to be left behind, received trendy white cabinets and a beautiful thick slab of granite for countertops.
Downstairs is the perfect spot to post up for cartoons, movies, or sports game.
Outside, the yard was completely retouched, receiving fresh sod, foliage, and landscaping. With oversized family room windows overlooking the property, you’ll appreciate the new ‘scape.
Now that we’ve ditched all the clues of that old shade of blue, we feel like this SunCrest rambler is a once in a blue moon opportunity.

December SunCrest Market Update
Follow along: Newsletter | Facebook | Instagram
Dear SunCrest,
We don’t even know where to begin. Four years ago, an idea was born to collect warm winter clothes for those who desperately needed it. We brought their plea to you — our friends, our neighbors, our SunCrest community — and you delivered in a big way.
“Why stop there?” we wondered. Since then, this annual tradition has continued to grow. Not only have your donations grown, but so have your stories of what this has meant to you. Seeing your donations literally pile up (and overflow!) at the clubhouse has been an amazing and touching experience for us. Personally meeting neighbors to pick up donations and hear stories of “I’ve been saving these for 6 months to give to you,” or “I went and bought these items for the drive,” has been a humbling and rewarding reminder of what a great community we live in.
This year, SunCrest donated over 600 items, nearly 20% more than years past! In addition to the used items that go to The Road Home, approximately 60 brand new items were donated and will be a part of Candy Cane Corner, a holiday store stocked with donations where low-income, struggling families and individuals from the YWCA, Road Home, and Volunteers of America can go to “shop” in a dignified way for presents for their families. Every item you gave will help someone this season.
Thank you SunCrest. Thank you for your donations, big or small. Thank you for helping another man, woman, or child stay a little warmer this winter.
With gratitude,
Scott Steadman and Robyn Foulger

Mountain Park Estates (SunCrest Shoebox) – Revised Plan
Follow along: Newsletter | Facebook | Instagram
- 126 single family units with minimum lot size requirements ranging from .18-.23 acre.
- 24 total tri-plex and six-plex multi-family units.
- Nearly 6.5 acres of regional commercial
- Proposed parks and trails managed and maintained by a HOA.
- 35% open space
It’s important to note to that these plans are preliminary and are still being reviewed by Draper City. It will still need to go before the City Council for approval. This development is not currently a part of the SunCrest HOA and would need to be annexed should they decide to join.
14788 S. Shadow Grove Court | Extra Flair
$669,500 | 4,414 sq. ft. | 5 beds | 3.5 baths
No parent ever admits to having a favorite child, but let’s face it: they totally do. The same can be said of homes.
This house at 14788 S. Shadow Grove Court hails from one of SunCrest’s most celebrated builders, and it received “favorite child” treatment from them, even above and beyond what other homes with the same floorplan received when they were built.
A bigger family room means more accessibility, and more enjoyment.
The main floor was designed to host parties, dinner dates, or days of your own pajama-clad noshing. The large chefs kitchen is complete with double ovens, granite countertops, stainless appliances, and an island that can handle any holiday feast with ease.
The sellers love the master retreat and it’s hard to disagree. It’s a lavish space with coffered ceilings and a master bathroom dressed to the 9’s.
Downstairs is sensible, spacious, and consistent to the home’s design elements.
Outside, the landscaping has extra flair for killer curb appeal that blends perfectly with the serene SunCrest backdrop.
Sure, the home was a little spoiled when it was built, but now you can reap the rewards.
2156 E. Feather Hill Court | A Rare Rambler
$429,000 | 3,528 sq. ft. | 6 beds | 3 baths
Ramblers in SunCrest don’t show up too often. If we told you this one even has a view of Mt. Timpanogos, Utah County, and Utah Lake and on top of all that is located in a cul-de-sac, you’d probably think you had just seen a unicorn.
Well, saddle up and hold on tight because this is no myth.
Countless hours were recently put in to balance cozy and comfortable, with move-in ready. The main floor sports durable manufactured hardwoods that are up to the challenge of kids and pets.
The kitchen (new stainless appliances!) opens up to the family room and leads you right to our favorite spot: the triple pane sliding glass door and accompanying Trex deck. Hello, views!
The master was designed with intent to serve up daily sunrises in bed. It’s okay, we won’t tell if you hit snooze a few times to catch it.
The basement vibe was ditched in favor of a “lower level”. We’re talking nine-foot ceilings, a full kitchen, laundry room, and large family room that has a universal design for you to make it whatever want it to be. Man cave, kid cave, bat cave – take your pick!
This home is equal parts convenience, comfortable, flexibility, and fine finish; a mythical creature indeed!
Warm Winter Clothes Drive
We are excited to announce our fourth annual “Warm Winter Clothes Drive.” Over the past three years, your response has been truly amazing as we gathered over 1,400 items that have benefited low income families.
This year, we’ve teamed up with The Road Home’s Midvale Family Center, a non-profit that helps homeless families in Salt Lake County. Winter means bitter temperatures, so let’s team up again and help them out!
HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP: Drop off anything from the list below in the blue donation bins at the SunCrest Community Clubhouse now through November 26th, 2017.
WINTER HATS | WINTER PANTS | WINTER BOOTS
2046 E. Eagle Crest Drive | Ah, Eagle Crest
$575,000 | 3,918 sq. ft. | 5 beds | 3.5 baths
Ah, Eagle Crest Drive. We love this street. Homes are planted right on the ridge line where you can’t help but to get stuck staring at the valley. Seriously, the views don’t get much better than this.
And this home? Well, we love it for a number of reasons. Not only does it “check the boxes” of what a solid and functional house should offer, but it just feels right, too.
The yard is flat, finished, and ready for family memories. We’re fond of that deck; it’s perfect for entertaining and it’s covered so you can soak up the views all year long.
Inside, we commonly hear that this floor plan is “smart”, “comfortable”, and “perfect for our family.” The open kitchen and family room balance each other perfectly, while the accompanying living/dining room can be tailored to your liking.
Both upstairs (spoiler: fireplace in the master) and downstairs (complete with a walkout basement) are just as brilliant as the main floor.
Airy rooms, open living spaces, and windows placed precisely where you want them, keeping the signature Eagle Crest Drive views in plain sight at almost all times.
Draper election
It came to our attention recently that one of our signature photos of SunCrest was being used without our permission, in association with a local political campaign. You may have seen it show up in the mail or noticed it online. We have contacted the parties involved and hope the issue will be resolved quickly, but we felt like it was important to clarify: The image was used without our consent and SunCrest Lifestyle is not affiliated with any campaign.
The current election in Draper has been hotly contested and we’re glad to see so much discussion about the future of our city. We hope everyone in Draper will let their voice be heard this election and select the candidates they believe best represent their neighborhood, families, and themselves. We at SunCrest Lifestyle will continue to do our best to bring you all the news and information that affects us as residents, regardless of political party.

SunCrest Mountain Park Estates
UPDATE: The planning commission unanimously denied the proposal as presented at the October 12th meeting.
The Draper City Planning Commission is seeking public comment and will review the ~84 acres known as Mountain Park Estates aka “SunCrest Shoebox” parcel located East of Tallwoods and West of Eagle Crest subdivisions in SunCrest. Residents are encouraged to submit feedback to the city here or by speaking at the public meeting (Draper City Hall – 1020 E. Pioneer Road.) Full plan here.
The latest proposal outlines nearly 40% open space, a 7-acre monument park, clubhouse, and pool; in addition to 233 housing units (81 single family, 134 townhomes, 18 townhome/multifamily). Previous proposals for the area included commercial/office space, a school, and storage facility–all of which have now been eliminated.
