15093 S. Winged Bluff Lane | SunCrest life at its peak
$415,000 | 3,122 sq. ft. | 6 beds | 3 baths
By now you know ’bout our affinity for SunCrest, so we’ll forgo the fawning over miles of nearby outdoor recreation and clean air, and jump right to the point: If SunCrest is life at the top, then this spot is at the tippy-top of the neighborhood.
Posted at the pinnacle of Winged Bluff Lane, living here means you’ve got an all star line up of views that include Lone Peak and Mt. Timpanogos by day, and the lambent (thanks daily word!) lights of Salt Lake and Utah County at night.
The oversized Trex deck handles the hot tub with ease and even leaves enough room to follow your fave yoga-at-home vids while taking in the crisp mountain air.
The manicured, fully landscaped yard has a view-friendly fence that is ideal for keeping kids, pets and the scenery all within the same line of sight.
Inside, the layout is simple and inviting. Windows are placed right where you’d expect them, and the home’s open spaces are spot on for family gatherings, dinner with friends, or enjoying the peaceful mountain setting on your own time.
Three bedrooms and two large family rooms on each level allow for customization to your lifestyle. If that isn’t enough, we challenge you to find a master suite with better vistas than this.
SunCrest life at its peak.
15061 S. Winged Bluff Lane | Unbeatable Views
$410,000 | 3,122 sq. ft. | 6 beds | 3.5 baths
It’s not too often that view homes like these come up for sale, so it might be wise to heed our advice: act quickly.
Perched high up on Winged Bluff Lane in SunCrest, this main floor living home is about easy living and soaking up the very views that make SunCrest famous.
If you consider yourself the host(ess) with most(ess), you’re in for a real treat here. Whether it’s Sunday brunch, a casual cocktail party, or getting together with the gang from the good ol’ days, the kitchen and family room open up to the large Trex deck and will pair good company with unbeatable mountain and valley views.
The main floor master is positioned in the back of this place so that everyday sunrises bring new meaning to the old saying “just another day in paradise.”
Two other beds and a universal den or office complete the main floor layout. The downstairs, should you ever dare leave the main floor views, has to be one of the biggest family rooms on the street and is certain to be great space for nights spent at home.
Two other bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a space currently being used a salon (but yours to customize) round out this SunCrest home. If you don’t move fast, the next view will be the “Sold” sign out front.
1792 E. Auburn Ridge Lane | Be Our Guest
$389,900 | 2,801 sq. ft. | 5 beds | 3.5 baths
Plucked straight from the “what’s what” in home fashion trends, this home at 1792 E. Auburn Ridge Lane serves up a delicious dose of oohs and ahhs.
The owners went all out on the jaw dropping remodel. Starting with the kitchen, they added beautiful quartz counters, eye catching subway tile, sleek white cabinets, stainless appliances, and a decorative barn door to boot.
The updates continued in the entry where they opted for a more open feel by removing the former wall – hard to disagree with open concept living, in our book.
Be our guest in the wide open downstairs. This family room will kick your cinema habit in favor of cozying up to watch your favorite flick on the theater style seating.
In the back, transition from indoor to out, with French doors that open up to one of the biggest yards on the block. It’s flat, fully fenced, decorated with mature landscaping, and has a patio perfect for entertaining. Cheers to this one folks; you’re home.
1940 E. Oak Bend Dr | Spring Is Calling
$334,900 | 2,135 sq. ft. | 4 beds | 3.5 baths
For those keeping a watchful eye on the SunCrest real estate market, it’s common knowledge that a home in the low $300s is pretty rare. So we don’t think it’s too far of a stretch to say we may have just rounded up your next space.
For starters, the four bed, 3.5 bath layout is equal parts practical, sensible, and functional.
You’ll find real hardwood floors, three tone paint (we love the modern grays), upgraded fixtures, and a modernized kitchen that features stainless appliances, sleek white cabinets, and a designer subway tile backsplash.
The front of the home overlooks Lone Peak and if you’re up to it, it makes a great hike, or the perfect conversation piece as you entertain guests in the home’s great room.
Downstairs is our pick for nights at home or catching your favorite team (or some zzz’s) as it boasts a cozy family room, another bedroom, and a full bath.
Outside, spring will be calling your name as you step foot on the oversized Trex deck and accompanying pergola. The fully landscaped yard means more room for family games or playing fetch with Fido or watching the wildlife wake up from winter.
14943 S. Laurel Oaks Court | Cover Girl
$575,000 | 4,632 sq. ft. | 5 beds | 4.5 baths
We don’t really love cheesy descriptions. Stuff like “hidden gem” and “massive curb appeal” tend to make us cringe. So, we’re not going to use the phrase “picture perfect” here, even though we really want to. Let’s just say that if you were looking for a magazine cover shot, we can’t really think of a better home than this one.
With Lone Peak as a backdrop, and the mature landscaping that abuts a gorgeous walkway leading to the grand entry, she’s a cover girl, for sure.
Look up or look down when you step foot in this two-story; either way you’re in for a treat. Cherry hardwoods extend across the home’s main and second levels. Windows decorate the walls and let the light flow throughout.
The main floor (and entire home, for that matter) is set for easy living with the kitchen placed squarely at the heart of the home while the dining, living, and family rooms branch out from there.
The ever-so-convenient deck is nestled among the gambel oak, a hallmark of the SunCrest community.
Upstairs, the master bedroom is covered in views of the Lone Peak wilderness range. The spa-like master bathroom is perfect for soaking in relaxation amid life’s busy events.
Two other bedrooms, a jack and jill bathroom, and a loft that is begging for a telecommuter or kids’ area round off the second story.
Downstairs finds 10-foot ceilings, a large family room, two bedrooms, a full bathroom and walkout basement. The park-like backyard and waterfall are just what you’d hope for to compliment the home’s exquisite design.
We won’t say it’s “picture perfect,” but you definitely will.
14786 S. Golden Leaf Court | Above it all
$639,500 | 4,988 sq. ft. | 6 beds | 3.5 baths
Mind if we start by bringing up a dirty secret? Yes, we mean the inversion, and it’s not so secret: the air in the Salt Lake Valley can get el-yucko.
Well, breathe easy. In this SunCrest home you’ve got almost a half-acre of fenced, landscaped yard to wander around, and it’s full of fresh air, above the ick.
Take five on the Trex deck, fill your lungs with clean ohhh-2 or just look at the views of the city out the window when there’s a break in the weather.
Speaking of indoor views, we were smitten when we saw the main floor family room. Sky high ceilings, an abundance of windows, and a dazzling fireplace.
The current owners rave about the home’s balanced floorplan, and it’s easy to see why. Kids, pets, or unruly family members are no match for the sturdy and stylish flooring that spans the main floor.
That kitchen. Bring it on, top chefs!
The master bed and bath are equal parts open and bright, as it’s cozy and quiet. Your wardrobe doesn’t stand a chance of filling up master closet, it’s huge.
Overall, at nearly 5,000 square feet, five bedrooms (we like the sixth as an office), 3.5 bathrooms, home gym, newer carpet, paint, and some of the most organized, detailed, and cleanest owners we’ve met, you can R-E-L-A-X – this home is ready to fit your family’s lifestyle.

December SunCrest Market Update
Say hello! Newsletter | Facebook | Instagram
Do SunCrest Homes Really Sell In The Winter?
We get asked that question a lot this time of year. For good reason, too. With the wintry weather, the holidays, or the notion that it’s just not “peak season” for real estate, it would be easy to think buying and selling a house isn’t on anyone’s mind.
While it is true that more transactions occur in spring, you may be surprised to learn that winter is also a great time to sell your home. According to a recent Redfin study which analyzed over 7 million home sales over the past 4 years, Winter was a close second to Spring when it comes to greatest likelihood of selling above list price and selling in less than 30 days.
In 2016, SunCrest sellers received 96.22% of their list price in winter compared to 96.55% in spring.
The total number of homes currently for sale in SunCrest continue to be at or near the lowest number it’s been in all of 2016. Sure, trudging through snow or decking the halls (so to speak) might sound like it’s putting people off, but we’ve found that winter brings out the more serious buyers. Those looking to move are often motivated by a new job, new family member, or unique to SunCrest, escaping the inversion.
Our take:
Buyers looking are becoming increasingly frustrated at the lack of fresh inventory. Sellers pondering putting the sign in the yard won’t face nearly as much competition but will have serious buyers knocking. While snowstorms, windstorms, and holiday havoc may put some off for a weekend, history shows us that most are comfortable with snow boots and scraping the car to buy or sell their next home. If you’re on the fence (or snow mound) about the best time to buy or sell, now may be the time to explore your options.
Our SunCrest Market Update is a hyper-local analysis of the most up-to-date information regarding the SunCrest real estate market. The previous month’s SunCrest housing information and future editions are released monthly.
2007 E. Oak Summit Drive | Live Elevated
$600,000 | 5,504 sq. ft. | 3 beds | 2.5 baths
When we first saw this house, we couldn’t get the word “elevation” out of our minds. After all, it sits atop one of SunCrest’s most elevated streets. The elevation – its position above both the Salt Lake and Utah valleys – is what affords some experiences you don’t get just anywhere. Breakfasts here are served with sunrises over Mt. Timp and gorgeous views of Utah Lake. Dinner is paired with sunsets over the Great Salt Lake and twinkling city lights.
Elevation has another meaning, though. In architectural terms, it’s a flat view of one side of the home. We think every elevation strikes a stunning silhouette against the skyline. Architecturally speaking, however, there’s even more to love on the inside. The 5500 square feet is laid out to take maximum advantage of an elevated lifestyle.
Windows line the walls to capitalize on the home’s unbeatable mountain setting.
The gigantic chef’s kitchen is complete with double ovens, in-counter gas cooktop, and beautiful thick slabs of granite. Best of all, the kitchen is the heart of the home and is flanked by the dining room and a pair of family rooms have taken “open concept” to new heights. We’re confident it will handle any size party you’re brave enough throw at it.
Three bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms are tucked quietly away if you need a break from the home’s common areas. The master bedroom is not only a spacious retreat, but it’s flooded with natural light and features sky high ceilings, double closets, dual vanities, a spa-like tub and shower, and a walkout (yep, we said walkout!) that leads to the open mountain air above the inversion and worry of life below.
1863 E. Chimney Stone Court | The Buck(s) Stop Here
$359,000 | 3,123 sq. ft. | 3 beds | 2.5 baths
For those canvassing the area searching for the perfect place to call home, the buck(s) stop here. Figuratively and literally.
This 2-story sits proudly along the Maple Hollow corridor and is perfect for any outdoor enthusiast extraordinaire. Seriously, there’s not a single house between you and the Maple Hollow trailhead. Mother Nature is a great neighbor in our book.
The inside? Well for starters, check out that bonus room. Our thoughts? It’s perfect for a telecommuter, homeworker, or wildlife watcher – just don’t creep the neighbors with your binoculars.
The rest of the main floor is screaming for you to host this year’s ugly sweater party. The open concept kitchen and family room is huge!
Even your tallest friends can fit under those nine-foot ceilings. The home was recently updated with new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, carpet, and that oh-so-stylish wood looking tile.
Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and the laundry room provide ample space upstairs, and downstairs is bursting with possibilities (theater room, gym, or a place to create YouTube cat videos).
Pack your things, we’ll see you at the open house.
