Residence

SURROUNDED BY WATER

The 8,308 square foot, 5 bedroom, 8 bathroom home sits on a peninsula surrounded by year-round ponds fed directly from Fish Creek and Alder Creek. The Ranch's main pond comes right up underneath the home's outdoor deck. Building regulations have changed so that structures like this can never again be located this close to water, but this house is grandfathered in. Canoeing, kayaking, stand-up paddling, and swimming in the ponds are a regular treat for the family who resides here, plus extensive waterfront outdoor decks and large lawns make for perfect opportunities to gather, play, and relax.

The current owners have planted over 100 mature trees for maximum beauty and privacy, and have spared no expense in enhancing the conservation value and biodiversity of the Ranch. Accessed only by state-of-the-art gates off Fall Creek Road, the Ranch is a Teton utopia, despite being just minutes from all that Jackson has to offer. The owners built a private trail system meandering throughout the property for miles and providing for hikes and mountain biking, as well as nordic skiing during the winter months. While trout are present natively across the Ranch, the primary pond, with depths reaching 28', is stocked with cutthroat trout which, because they are in private water, can be brought inside to eat, versus the catch-and-release in the creeks and rivers.

Built by the original developers of the Crescent H Ranch for themselves because they deemed it the most desirable lot in the Ranch, the home’s two-story great room with a wet bar and wood-burning fireplace has views spanning from the Tetons across the range to Mt. Glory.

The home features a ground-floor master suite with separate his and her bathrooms and walk-in closets, as well as its own wet bar and laundry. The owners wake up gazing directly at the Tetons over peaceful water framed by gorgeous cottonwoods, spruce, aspens, and new willows.

The main floor includes a beautiful office with full Teton views, a luxurious kitchen, dining room with fireplace, family room with another fireplace, breakfast nook, walk-in pantry with sink, full laundry room, and two powder baths.

At night, the family gathers in a media room with a pool table, wet bar, full bath, and step-out deck. If a buyer chose, this spacious room could also serve as a bedroom considering its full bath.

Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms each with en-suite bathrooms, an open lofted hallway with Teton views for reading, a separate loft currently used as a craft room, and a mother-in-law apartment complete with laundry and a wet bar.

Back down below, the 1200 square foot heated garage with finished closet space and a bonus storage room comfortably houses their cars, bikes, kayaks, canoes, waders, rods, tackle, and all manner of outdoor adventure gear.
