"It’s not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves."
-Sir Edmund Hillary
"At Sundance, I'm in the mountains… I get on a horse and ride for three, four hours. Sometimes five. I get lost…"
-Robert Redford
Owned for decades by renowned artist, Sibylle Szaggars Redford, this quintessential mountain cabin represents the true essence of Robert Redford’s vision. The home’s minimal footprint and unpretentious yet intentional design, embody a spirit of harmony in communion with Nature. Thus creating a true sanctuary of peace, creativity, and freedom, that is inspired and nurtured by the surrounding forests, canyons, and the Wasatch Mountain Range. At the end of a cul-de-sac in an enchanting gated community, the setting is extremely private; with ever changing views of Mount Timpanogos that are simply awe-inspiring. While the vicinity to the base of the mountain, and the Sundance Mountain Resort, make the home supremely convenient.
The main living area is anchored by 27-foot vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and a full wall of windows that frame the mountains. With more than 3,500 square feet of living space on four levels, the layout includes a total of four-bedroom suites, one of which is in a lower-level guest apartment that has a private entrance, kitchenette, full bath, and deck. Crowning the home is a “dream space” attic loft: A place for meditation and creativity… a playroom… or a spillover bunkhouse. The captivating "treehouse effect" that graces this magical mountain cabin is most enhanced by the expansive windows and outdoor decks, all of which keep the surrounding forest, and shifting light, ever-present throughout the home.
Most homeowners in the vicinity of the Sundance Mountain Resort enjoy the four season wonders that nature offers. Whether spring / summer hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding, with the wildflowers in full bloom; autumn fly fishing in crystal clear streams; or winter snow shoeing and skiing in glistening fresh powder; this is a place where endless outdoor adventure beckons.
When not occupied by the Redfords, the home has historically been eligible for participation in the Sundance Mountain Resort short-term rental pool, which has offset some of the costs of ownership through selective rentals of the cabin.
This is a rare opportunity to own a legacy property near the heart of the Sundance Mountain Resort at a pivotal time. The resort is undergoing substantial investment, including a new high-speed lift, expanded snowmaking, upgraded dining, a new base camp, a new lodge, the Springs at Sundance, and improved year-round infrastructure. These changes are enhancing the Sundance experience while preserving the low-impact, nature-centered culture that has defined Sundance since its inception. All of which add significant value to this ownership opportunity. Homes with this level of privacy, architectural integrity, and provenance, are rarely offered for sale.
