We’d like to hear from you, Park City! Take the Park City Vision 2020 community survey and apply to participate in July’s Think Tank Workshops

Park City has launched Park City Vision 2020 – a community visioning project asking residents and business owners to share their perspectives on:

What makes Park City the place that people wish to call home?
What makes Park City special and what should Park City become?
What are the elements of the community that, if lost, would fundamentally change the character of Park City?

Park City Vision 2020 will be a 6-month community visioning project to define a Park City Community Vision and Action Plan, as a follow up to the 2009 Park City Community Visioning project.

There will be several opportunities to get involved throughout the visioning process now through October.

Dream Home: 110 White Pine Canyon Road

July 2, 2019 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

This pristine mountain ridgeline estate, with highly-sought-after down valley views, is nestled in the heart of The Colony at White Pine Canyon and is perfectly-placed to maximize ski access in one of the nation’s largest ski and snowboard resorts.

110 White Pine Canyon is scrupulously designed to integrate seamlessly into the slope of Dream Peak, and out its back door lies access to the entirety of Park City Mountain Resort. A quick click into skis places you on the intermediate Twilight run, and from there, you will enjoy nearly unprecedented access to some of the best skiing and snowboarding in the world.

Head to the base of Iron Mountain Express for entry to the Quicksilver Gondola – and explore the Park City side of the resort acreage. Alternatively, glide to Tombstone Express, and discover thousands of acres of epic, uncrowded Canyons terrain.

This mountain retreat’s meticulous design was crafted to take advantage of the breathtaking down valley and mountain views.

Exacting workmanship and the highest quality materials, including Wolf Creek Moss Rock inside and out, have come together to create a sense of warmth, color, and character only found in on-mountain luxury living.

The main home has 8 bedrooms total, with 10 bathrooms, and covers 9,499 square feet on 6.13 acres.

The top level master suite has some of the most spectacular views to be found in the entirety of The Colony, with a heated deck right outside the french doors upon which to sit, relax, and enjoy them.

The main home includes three levels of east-facing window walls to highlight a panoramic ridge view, which stretches all the way to the Unita Mountains.

An apartment, perfect for a caretaker or nanny, is placed in its own private wing.

A detached 2,012 square foot bunkhouse was constructed in 2011, with an additional three bedrooms, for 11,511 total square feet of living space.

Also found in this spectacular mountain retreat: multiple entertainment enclaves, an office, a dedicated ski room, wet bar, theatre, and wine cellar.

This estate, designed by Mark Walker of Otto Walker Architects and completed in 2004 by Sletta Contstcution Inc, is truly a work of art.

FEATURED: Arriving Home in The Colony Feels Like a True Departure

June 27, 2019 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

PREPARE FOR TAKEOFF

A picture of The Colony at White Pine Canyon is worth a thousand words. A visit will leave you speechless. The concept of this unique alpine escape is special. The private, ski-in/ski-out, gated preserve is nestled in the heart of one of North America’s largest ski and snowboard resorts, in the town of Park City, Utah, site of dozens of 2002 Winter Olympics events.

From the instant your feet touch this magnificent land and you fill your lungs with this pristine alpine air, you’ll understand that the only way to get away from it all is to live in the middle of it all. Arriving at The Colony feels like a true departure.

A COOL, COOL SUMMER AT THE COLONY

There are many reasons to head for the mountains in the summer. Cool mountain air, breathtaking vistas, massive aspen groves, bubbling streams, abundant wildlife, and rich mountain flora are just a few of nature’s contributions to this special place.

The Colony is secluded while being very accessible; it’s just 35 miles from Salt Lake International Airport, and 22 miles from Heber Valley Airport, perfect for private jet travel. Once you are settled into your Colony retreat, you’re a mere five miles to Park City’s Historic Main Street, home to the Sundance Film Festival, and world-class dining and shopping.

The concept of this unique alpine escape is special. The private, ski-in/ski-out, gated preserve is nestled in the heart of one of North America’s largest ski and snowboard resorts, in the town of Park City, Utah, site of dozens of 2002 Winter Olympics events.

AIR, LAND, AND WATER

Air: Pack your picnic basket and enjoy the dozens of open-air concerts held around The Colony throughout the warm-weather months. Enjoy a sunrise hot air balloon ride that will give you an incredibly unique way to take in miles of the Park City landscape. An added bonus is the annual Autumn Aloft hot air balloon festival, held each September in Park City.

Land: Take just a few steps outside your home to set off on a hike, bike, or horseback ride, either on the numerous private trails sprinkled among the 274 homesites scattered over the 4,600 acres of the development–or along the hundreds of miles of trails open to the public.

In the summer months, enjoy the selections at Park City’s weekly Wednesday Farmer’s Market and the Park Silly Sunday Market. The July celebration of America’s birthday in Park City stretches into days, not hours. Labor Day is celebrated as Miner’s Day, where thousands congregate in the streets of Park City for a parade and festivities commemorating the area’s rich mining history.

Water: Streams, waterfalls, lakes, and ponds can be found throughout The Colony. Boating, paddle-boarding, kayaking, white water rafting, and fly fishing opportunities abound at the numerous lakes and on the Weber and Provo Rivers.

WINTER BREAK

The stunning summers help you prepare for the epic winters. The Park City Mountain Resort ski day begins and ends at the back door for Colony homeowners. With an average snowfall of 25 feet per year, and 350+ inches last winter, you can bet skiers and boarders are not wasting any time enjoying the more than 7,300 acres of winter magic in-bounds. Among those acres, there are 348 trails, 41 lifts, 13 bowls, 8 terrain parks, and 2 base villages to enjoy.

Our state, known for the best snow on earth, has already hosted one set of Winter Games. The facilities, venues, and transportation systems built for the 2002 Olympics have been so meticulously maintained and upgraded, Utah has been selected by the United States Olympic Committee for a potential 2030 Winter Games bid. The move would inject even more momentum into Utah’s real estate market, which is the number-one state in house price appreciation since 1991 (up 321.57% since Q1, 1991, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency). Not only that, but The Colony homes are directly in the middle of Park City’s venues – and all of the Olympic action.

THE NEXT GREAT ESCAPE: DREAM LOTS ON DREAM RIDGE

It’s an accepted fact that this land is special. And the newest releases in The Colony–the Dream Lots–are in a category of their very own. They are the most spectacular homesites ever offered in The Colony, and there are only two of them.

Live the alpine dream year-round from your dream home in a Dream Lot, perched atop Dream Ridge, which feels like your own personal mountain. The Dream Lots offer 360º perspectives: of Park City Mountain, territorial down-valley views, and the majestic Uinta Range ridgeline. These unparalleled homesites are partially wooded with lush aspen groves and evergreens, offering, relatively flat building envelopes and unmatched privacy.

A JOURNEY FOR THE AGES

The current Colony Master Plan started to evolve in 1992. But the real story began when John George Condas arrived at Ellis Island in 1903 and headed west. He settled in Utah and was one of the region’s providers of food for the large mining population. Park City’s cool summers offered an ideal habitat for Condas’s large sheep herds and they wandered the hills from June to November. It has been critical to the project that the Condas family legacy lives on today. The developer and each new Colony owner are committed to being good stewards of the land, through the master planning, where the landscape remains the inspiration, and through the philosophy that “less is more.” Historical landmarks of the Condas family settlement can be found throughout the development and a number of sites have remains of small sheepherders’ shelters. There are also quite a few massive aspen trees carved with the previous inhabitants’ initials–dating back to the early 1900s–documenting their presence.

The devotion to this land is such that nearly 90% of the development’s 4,600 acres will remain pristine and untouched open space, protected with preservation easements. Current offerings average more than seven acres per lot, the largest to be found within just about any private, gated, ski-in/ski-out community in the world.

Live the alpine dream year-round from your dream home in a Dream Lot, perched atop Dream Ridge, which feels like your own personal mountain. The Dream Lots offer 360º perspectives: of Park City Mountain, territorial down-valley views, and the majestic Uinta Range ridgeline.
