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.

Rock tumblers were all the rage in elementary school. It was like magic; you put in a rock, a little grit, and a couple of weeks later you pull out a smooth and polished gem. It was like magic! Sometimes we feel that same sixth grade magic when we see houses like this one. Nestled in the SunCrest community-renowned for its promise of adventure, unbeatable views, and a tight-knit community-this home offers that same promise of shine. From the curb you can see all the elements that make for a great curb appeal, including established trees, a perky porch, and fashionable two-toned trim against natural rock. Inside, the expansive living and dining room areas take the spotlight, featuring intricate trim work that commands attention. Abundant windows and dual sliding glass doors in the kitchen brighten the space with natural light, offering captivating views of Lone Peak and the Salt Lake Valley. Upstairs, discover 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The primary bedroom is tucked at the rear of the home and is the perfect place to unwind after a rocky day. Two other bedrooms, a full bathroom, and the laundry room round out the main level living. Downstairs, a spacious second gathering room stands ready to create countless memories, from game days to hosting holiday celebrations. Three additional bedrooms, another full bathroom, and an office with custom cabinetry complete the lower level. Like those polished rocks, the more you look at this house, the more sparkle you can find. The fenced yard showcases a cozy sitting area, inviting relaxation and the fresh air SunCrest is known for. Yes, you may need a little grit to polish things to your level of perfection, but the real value in any gem is the stone itself. With the right touch, this SunCrest rambler can turn into your very own gem.

What's in a name? Shakespeare writes in Romeo and Juliet. On the one hand, names definitely carry meaning. Capulet. Montague. Their family names made things tricky (read: fatal) for these two lovers. On the other hand, we agree with Juliet that a name is only a name and doesn't define the character of a person. With this in mind, we know that the name SunCrest immediately comes with thoughts of fresh air full of unbelievable views, a vibrant outdoor lifestyle, an active homeowners association rich with amenities, and a community of the greatest people around. Add to that the name Vista Ridge Court where this rambler sits, and you've got some serious name swagger. This highly coveted, quiet cul-de-sac sits at the very tippy top of the neighborhood and homes here rarely come up for sale. On the other hand, we have to agree with Juliet: a street name doesn't define a house, but rather it's what is on the inside that counts. To start, rambler floor plans are known for wide-open spaces, easy living, and can accommodate all phases of life. One foot inside, and you're greeted by high vaults and an oversized living area to the left, and another space that can be used as a home office or study. The kitchen and the main floor family room are placed precisely at the back of the house to keep a close watch on the views of Utah County and Mt. Timpanogos. The accompanying 12 x 65 Trex deck overlooks a custom meandering water feature and a naturally vegetated, fully fenced yard. Summer soirees, birthday bashes, or family fun-the home's common areas are meant for entertaining. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and the laundry room round out the main floor. The primary suite is a sanctuary where dreams intertwine with reality, boasting a balcony that allows the stars themselves to witness your slumber. The ensuite features a double vanity, separate tub, and shower that will have you wishing you could stay there all day-parting is such sweet sorrow! Downstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, another full bathroom, and a dedicated theater room. From football to romance movies (or your favorite Shakespeare adaptation) it's the perfect place to relax. The second family room comes with a wet bar and that hard-to-find walkout basement to the one-third acre lot. Three other bedrooms and another full bathroom complete the space. Yes, this home has all the right names-Vista Ridge and SunCrest-but even without the names it would still be pretty sweet.

You know that feeling when you finally take off your sunglasses? How much more clearer, colorful, and true-to-life everything seems? That's kinda what it's like to tour this SunCrest 2 story. For starters, the curb appeal is all about color. Green, green grass. Blue, blue skies. And bursts of color in the flowerbeds that just pop with personality. Inside, a spacious and airy two-story living room welcomes you right away and leads you to the bright kitchen, ample dining area, and oh-so-cozy family room. There's a reason open concept never goes out of style. Upstairs, the primary bathroom was just remodeled (but like, just barely) and boasts a subway tile shower, sleek euro glass, new lighting and vanity; all updates that will have you rubbing your eyes to ask if it's too good to be true. The primary suite offers stunning mountain views, while the three additional bedrooms (that's 4 bedrooms on the same level, for those counting) have a fresh, inviting feel. This unfinished basement is a blank canvas and ready for your creative vision. Whether you see a cozy home theater, a game room, or another family room, the only limit is your imagination. Out back finds a private patio with lush landscaping-your haven to unwind with a good book or close your eyes, sip a beverage, and slip into a little snooze. We thought we knew what fresh paint looked like before, but the new paint and carpet somehow seem even newer and fresher than we even imagined, and give the home a brand new feel. It's one thing to look at photos, but come see how vibrant this home is in person.

We're officially in a post-pandemic home buying era, but some of those lessons from the last few years are now just part of the norm. People want more from their homes; from a home office, to a gym, or a home entertainment room, these used to be luxuries but are now almost a given. We think this SunCrest 2-story with main floor living hits on all the ways we use our homes in perfect order. Starting at the street, you'll notice the picture-perfect curb appeal. Take in that roof while you're looking at her, she's brand new. Located on a large .22-acre corner lot that overlooks the best park in the community, you get quick access to that park for the running trail, playground, or pickleball; plus a lovely yard of your own that just adds even more utility to your property. Oh, and the location also means your views are unobstructed. Anytime you can pair SunCrest views with accessibility to amenities is a win. Inside, we're in love with the sky high ceilings that greet you. The main level finds plenty of windows to keep an eye on Mt. Timpanogos and Utah County while the floor plan offers comfort and flexibility. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, a convenient island, and generously-sized pantry. Even though the sourdough craze is in the past, we're all still spending a bit more time making our own meals and this kitchen is super functional. Whether you're whipping up a meal for two or twenty, there's space for them. As summer heats up, the party extends easily outside to the large Trex deck. The primary suite is found on the main floor and the original design nailed it by placing the space on the back of the house so those views can wake you up every morning and tuck you in every night. The real versatility comes upstairs, with 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom and a loft. Whether you need that office, playplace, or just room to spread out, it comes standard on this floor. As if you needed more out of your house, the downstairs level was finished more recently and features 3 bedrooms, another full bathroom, second family room, and a kitchenette. Best of all, there's even a walkout that delivers you back to those views and a fenced backyard. Some homes got left in the pre-pandemic past, but this one truly is a home for the functional future.
