Remember that feeling growing up when you'd go to your grandparents' house? The anticipation of the drive there, the joy of pulling in the driveway, and how you knew you'd be spoiled the moment you walked in? It was pure magic. Well, even though this home is much more modern than grandma's, we had a moment of that same magic when we rolled up to this SunCrest home the first time. The road here is equally placid, just like grandma's. By the pin drop on the map, you already know this is a special space in the SunCrest community, which sits high above the valley at over 6,000 feet in elevation and sits amongst Gambel Oak with both mountain and valley views. When you get out of the car, that fresh air feels a little reminiscent of those days with the grandparents living the simple life. This custom-built home is definitely going to spoil you, as well. The views alone are incredibly indulgent, with an embarrassment of riches from Lone Peak, Box Elder, Mt. Timpanogos and the Traverse Mountain range. It's like your own personal slice of paradise, sitting pretty on .32 acres. Step inside, and you're hit with those same warm fuzzies you get at grandma's but without all the bad wood paneling and bowl of Werther's originals. Built in 2002, the home has already had updates. The refreshed kitchen flows into the family room, making it the perfect spot for hanging out and making memories or soaking up the views you moved up here for. The main floor finds an office, a guest bedroom and bathroom, the laundry, and the home's primary suite. Be sure to imagine yourself here-it was designed with intention to maximize the SunCrest lifestyle. The downstairs is wide open on the back of the house so you get double the views and double the outdoor lifestyle. A full kitchen and a walkout mean you can really pack in as much family as you can handle. Laughter and late-night chats are sure to be had. Three other bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a wide-open family room round out the home's lower level. Here's the deal, folks: it's not just about the house. It's about the vibe, the community, and the people. The clubhouse is a few blocks away and it's got it all-pool, fitness center, and HOA shindigs. What if you could have that cozy feeling of rolling up to grandma's house again? What if you could feel that every time you came home?

Homes evolve. They change. They have to. If it weren't for change, we'd still see carpeted bathrooms, beaded curtains, or popcorn ceilings. Here in SunCrest, we occasionally see some homes that haven't changed since the day they were built and while the early 2000s were cool (Britney fan, anyone?), we're glad the fine folks selling this particular place have ditched nearly every dated design style from that decade. The original bones didn't need much changing-we're always fans of wide open entry rooms. Things like 10' ceilings, an abundance of windows, and sprawling floor plans never go out of style. But can we be honest? The original kitchen had to go. It was carefully removed, and thoughtfully updated to include quartz countertops, white oak cabinets, and new stainless steel appliances. The primary bedroom underwent the home's most recent change and has fresh carpet, a sleek modern fireplace, and newer paint. And the bathroom? Double vanity with new countertops, tile floor, walk-in tile shower, and a freestanding tub.Two other bedrooms, another full bathroom, and the laundry room round out the main floor living. Downstairs the family room is complete with a wet bar and rocks a 7.1 surround sound. From Easter Egg hunts, to Super Bowls, or any movie or game nights, the evolution of this basement would amaze Charles Darwin himself. This floor also hosts 2 additional bedrooms, a workout room and hobby/craft room, a full bathroom, and the home's second laundry room. Outside, the landscaping is as dialed in as they come. Bright flowers, green grass, and those unbeatable SunCrest skies! The backyard is quiet, serene, and secluded. It should be; the .26-acre lot offers plenty of fenced space for kids or 4 legged wanderers. If you're the adventurous kind, you're well within walking distance to the community clubhouse and pool, the 6-acre SunCrest park, and miles of trails staring at the eagle crest trailhead.

Can't. Stop. Scrolling. We get it-this is one of those homes that makes you cycle through the photo carousel at least a dozen times. Inspiration and motivation are likely to follow, because these sellers are superb SunCrest citizens and have taken a really good home and made it great. However, our kicking and screaming protests haven't kept them from moving on to their next adventure, and our neighborhood's loss is definitely your gain. Start at the street where curb appeal is worth driving home to. The approach is simple, inspiring, and screams a loud, Welcome home! We're not sure where to start on the inside because there's just so much to say. Every detail has been dialed to complement the home's true main level living. Nearly every fixture, faucet, flooring, and finished space has been upgraded, and turned up to 11. Pay close attention to the details you won't find in other home's currently on the market, like stylish finish work, bold and beautiful colors, and IG worthy inspo posts in every room. The home's 5 bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, and convenient laundry room are just as stylish and spacious; these professional and polished looks are exactly what keep you swiping through those pics. Downstairs is open, bright, and a great place to spend nights or weekends with those you care about most. We love the pergola out back, because it ties in perfectly with full landscaping, fencing, and a low maintenance yard. With so much style packed into a timeless floor plan, what are you waiting for?
