Warm Winter Clothes Drive 2023

We’re excited to hold our annual SunCrest Lifestyle warm winter clothes drive. We’re collecting new or very gently used Winter coats, jackets, gloves, and boots for those in need. As you pull out your warmer clothes and find items that don’t fit or just may not be your style anymore, we’d love to take them off your hands.
This year, we’re teaming up with Giving Angels, a SunCrest resident-operated nonprofit. They believe that every family deserves to have their basic clothing needs met. With appropriate clothing, children and families will perform better in school and in life.
We have two ways to donate: drive-by donation, or schedule a pickup at your place.

Details are as follows:
Dropoff: Saturday, November 4th – SunCrest Community Clubhouse (2016 E. Village Green Cir) – 9am-11am. We’ll have complimentary donuts, hot cocoa, and coffee. Come by and hang out, or just drive by to drop off.
Pickup: Go to suncrestlifestyle.com/clothes to sign up for a pickup. Leave them on your porch Saturday and we’ll get them by 5pm.
We want to say thanks in advance, because every year your donations get bigger and bigger and it’s awesome (and humbling) to see. Thank you!

14644 S Snow Blossom Way

📍14644 S Snow Blossom Way 🛏 6 , 🛁 3.5, 📐 4,530 ft.² , on 🌳. 33 acres. Offered at 💰1,295,000

Have you ever spent time with a puppy? The tail wagging, the wide eyes—they’re excited about everything! We ask because we recently found ourselves acting just like a pup when we toured this Suncrest two-story. The wagging started when we saw the address. Snow Blossom sits right near the Edelweiss trail and is well-known for its unmatched views. The address puts it at the top of the street where the property backs right up into the Corner Canyon corridor overlooking the Salt Lake Valley. Living here means you’ll see a variety of wildlife, including elk, deer, wild turkeys, and even eagles. The puppy toe taps increased when we toured the inside; the house is just two years young and is light, bright, and features windows all over. To be honest, however, we went into full, unrestrained wiggle mode when we actually saw those views for the first time! No matter which room you’re in, you can see why this home has us so amped up. The main level flows seamlessly and is wide open, featuring two multipurpose rooms—think dining room, living room, or an office—which really give you options to fit your lifestyle. The kitchen has double ovens, a gas cooktop, upgraded cabinets, and, best of all, easy access to nearly 300 square feet of covered deck to enhance your indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Upstairs boasts 4 large bedrooms, the laundry, and the primary suite with a magazine-worthy bathroom featuring a separate tub and shower, adult-height vanity with double sinks, and upgraded tile and surrounds. Can we talk about that horizontal railing that lines the stunning catwalk hallway? Wow. Downstairs features 9-foot ceilings (seriously, why don’t all homes have 9-foot ceilings?) and is fully finished with another bedroom, a full bathroom, and a walkout basement that delivers you to that fresh SunCrest air. Our favorite is the downstairs gathering area—kickoffs, movie marathons, and good old-fashioned game nights are calling. We went full Goldendoodle the first time we saw it. Will you?

16032 S Timber Brook Dr

📍16032 S Timber Brook Dr 🛏 5 , 🛁 3.5, 📐 2,701 ft.² , on 🌳. 14 acres. Offered at 💰635,000.

Remember when a neighborhood used to be a neighborhood? You know the kind where kids would play, neighbors would socialize, and you could forget about the problems of the world for just a moment because you still had your little neighborhood where you belonged? We think that still exists in SunCrest, and especially in Maple Hollow. This little section of SunCrest has an active trailhead, a communal park that’s often filled with games (Olly Olly Oxen Free!) or neighborhood gatherings, and picturesque vistas of both the mountains and the lake. This home sits squarely in that area, and it also has everything you need on the inside to live that pure life of yesteryear with all of today’s modern conveniences. First of all, it’s a corner lot, so you literally have your own not-so-little corner of paradise. The kitchen, which features beautiful light cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, is right next to the dining room and a convenient main floor family room. Best of all, the sliding glass door delivers you to a BBQ-ready patio, swingset, raised garden beds, and a well-manicured, landscaped yard. Fire up the grill and break out the lawn darts—you’ll be spending a lot of time out in the yard just like you did when you were a kid. Upstairs, you’ll find 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The primary suite combines both style and practicality, offering essential features like dual vanities, a walk-in closet, and a separate shower and bathtub. The lower level is completely finished (no hard hat and hammer needed), featuring the home’s fifth bedroom, an additional full bathroom, and an expansive family room that’s ready for your new SunCrest Lifestyle. Will it become your personal movie theater, a gaming haven, or a cozy kid or guest retreat? You decide! Maple Hollow is still a true neighborhood, and this house gives you a chance to truly come home.

SunCrest Farmers Market

SunCrest! We are blown away by the incredible energy of this community. The turnout at the SunCrest Farmers Market was awesome. We are not only thrilled to be a part of it, but we are here to rally behind our fellow local businesses too. It’s all about meeting new neighbors, reuniting with old pals, and embracing the true spirit of togetherness as a neighborhood. If you haven’t experienced the magic of the Suncrest Market yet, mark your calendars! These exceptional events go down on the second Wednesday of every month through October. Huge shutout to @suncrestut for putting these together. Trust us, you don’t want to miss them.https://youtube.com/shorts/apRcUw24CJU?feature=share

SunCrest Pool Opening Plunge

SunCrest Pool Opening Plunge

What a party! We had a BLAST at the pool opening celebration. Huge kudos to @suncrestut for kicking the pool season off in such amazing fashion. Over 250 hot dogs were served, 225 Hokulia’s shaved ice handed out, great tunes from the @bestdjinutah, games, local heroes, and plenty of slides and splashes.  It was great to see familiar faces and meet new neighbors. See you at the pool all summer! .

2022 Year in Review


2022 Year in Review
It's time for our annual "Year in Review" where we look at the past year in SunCrest Real Estate. 2022 started off much like 2021 with many homes receiving multiple, above asking price offers. As interest rates rose, the total number of homes listed and sold decreased and prices flattened. Overall, home price appreciation saw 13% year over year increase, and just over 103 real estate sales (SunCrest homes and SunCrest land) took place, and the new median price of a home in SunCrest climbed to $795,000.

2022 By The Numbers

103 total SunCrest properties (homes + land) sold

  • 90 homes
  • 79 single family homes
  • 16 of the 79 single family homes were new construction homes
  • 11 townhomes
  • 13 lots

Median days sales time: 21 days
Highest sold price: $1,910,000
Lowest sold price: $341,500
Median sales price: $795,000
Most active sales period: 3rd quarter

The “Average” SunCrest Home Sold in 2022
We crunched the numbers. If you could put together an overall average of all SunCrest homes sold in 2022, here's what that house would look like:

Average Sold Price: $869,011
Average Price Per Square Foot: $229
Average Days on Market: 36
Year built: 2011
Beds: 4.62
Baths: 3.7
Acres: 0.22
Garage: 2.59
Finished Basement: 72%

Our take
If you're buying or selling, it's always best to take a hands-on approach and assess each home for its own merits. Averages can also be misleading, as there are always wide exceptions to it—that's how averages work, after all. Things like timing, condition, location, and quality all have an impact on buying and selling and you can get frustrated pretty easily if your home sale or purchase don't seem to be fitting the "average" experience. Having a hyperlocal expert in your corner who knows how to spot out of average opportunities can help turn any transaction to your benefit.

Draper City Surplus and SunCrest HOA land exchange

Draper City held a public hearing and approved the surplus of two areas of City owned land behind the SunCrest OA tennis court and SunCrest OA salt storage in exchange for .07 acres of SunCrest OA property. This was step one and a future meeting will amend the subdivision plat to actually move property lines. These items will clear up an encroachment issue and will provide both Draper City and Suncrest HOA suitable parking areas. The SunCrest HOA has long needed additional parking and this resolution will provide  an area to do so.

More info: 
Area 1 (Green) – 0.18 acres of Parcel 34-09-479-026 owned by Draper City was surplussed and will be provided to Suncrest HOA.
Area 2 (Orange) – 0.07 acres of Parcel 34-09-479-025 owned by Suncrest HOA will be provided to Draper City. 
Area 3 (Yellow) – 70 square feet of Parcel 34-09-479-027 owned by Draper City was previously surplussed by Draper City Council via Resolution NO. 18-84 on December 4, 2018. This area will be shown in the upcoming Plat Amendment going to Suncrest HOA to rectify a slight encroachment of the tennis court.
Area 4 (Magenta) – 1,169 square feet of Parcel 34-09-479-026 owned by Draper City was surplussed and will be provided to Suncrest HOA to rectify an encroachment of the tennis court.
