This is the home and property you've been dreaming about. Built for entertaining, the open concept kitchen, dining and lounge areas welcome warm gatherings of friends and family as you enjoy unobstructed panoramic views of Moncreiffe Ridge and the Little Goose Valley below. You may also choose to enjoy the view from the patio area, with its cascading water feature as it descends toward the valley and fenced garden below; or you may decide that the stamped concrete courtyard offers a more protected vantage from occasional wind or cooler weather as you enjoy your outdoor cooking and gathering space.
The kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream come true, with a commercial-grade Imperial gas range, 24' griddle/broiler and HD ventilation hood, 3 sinks with commercial-grade disposals in each, and solid rock maple butcher block countertops.
The home carries a contemporary industrial theme, showcasing steel I-beam reinforcement across the mezzanine support structure, diamond-plate steel-clad stairway to the guest quarters and upper observation deck, and raw steel framing for the kitchen seating, prep and countertop areas. The main entertainment and kitchen area is complemented nicely with slate tile, making for easy maintenance for those occasional spills. On the exterior, you will find aluminum-clad James Hardie fiber cement panel, noncombustible siding, in addition to the three beautiful mahogany true French doors and an 8', six-light modern entry door.
Family and guests will find room and comfort in the bedrooms on the upper level immediately overlooking the kitchen and dining areas, including a full-width mezzanine that offers a casual seating area for conversation or leisure reading.
Apart from the primary gathering and entertainment space, you will enjoy the expansive ground-level den or office space as you occasionally take-in the views from your desk or lounge on the sofa. At the end of the day, a beautifully-finished cork staircase will lead you to the Owner's quarters that feature a spacious bedroom with access to the upper balcony overlooking the 1100 square-foot stamped concrete courtyard area. From the bedroom leading toward the executive bathroom, you will find dual, opposing walk-in closets (one including a dry sauna) enclosed with Fusuma-style panel curtain enclosures. The expansive, luxurious bathroom offers dual sinks, a
roomy walk-in shower, and an enormous corner bathtub, fully illuminated with natural light from the windows along the south-facing wall. All of this, plus upper-deck access to the outdoor sitting area also accessible from the Owner Suite.
For those who need more space than the attached 2-car garage will allow, there is a heated 1300 square-foot shop building with a concrete floor, featuring 200-amp electrical service, one 9'x9' and two 12' high x 16' wide overhead doors, and trench floor drain.
On the upper level, you will find a 430 square foot auxiliary dwelling unit that features air-conditioning, an 80 square-foot greenhouse complete with utility sink, hot and cold water, 5" reinforced foam insulation, and waterproof fiber-reinforced polymer panel walls. There is also a spacious 500 square-foot wrap-around deck for enjoying the morning sunrises and evening sunsets. Built in 2017, this structure has many modern features, including composite countertops, five-burner gas cook top, and combination convection/microwave oven with exterior venting hood/oven. For peace of mind, the shop also has a sophisticated security system monitored by Bighorn Security. The beauty of this entire structure is that it could easily be retrofitted to become a barn/stable area with upper-level living quarters. Yes - this property is horse-friendly and allows livestock and poultry as well. The fenced loafing shed can provide immediate sanctuary for your animals. If you prefer dogs over horses, you will be happy to know that the entire property features a wired perimeter fence with power unit in the garage.
Situated on just under 5 acres, this property includes a 0.1-acre reservoir with a steel-framed deck/swim platform. In addition to SAWS water, the Parker Draw Improvement and Service District has shares of Park Reservoir water distributed through the Peralta ditch that allow for irrigation of the property during the irrigation season. Lawn and garden areas feature automated sprinkler systems, making for easy maintenance. As part of the Parker Draw Improvement and Service District, the homeowner will have access to the subdivision common area where there is a mowed walking path and a community pond that allows swimming, fishing access, or ice-skating.
This property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy life within one of the finest communities in Wyoming. The home lies at the end of the road, where you can live and entertain in private comfort with plenty of room for family, guests, your toys, your dogs or your horses - all right in front of the best view in Sheridan County. The highly-coveted Big Horn elementary, Junior High, and High School campus is less than 5 minutes away, making travel to and from school activities a breeze. This property within the Big Horn community lies in a perfect location for anyone who would enjoy convenient access to the Powder Horn Golf Community, the Big Horn Equestrian Center and Flying H Polo Club, the Brinton Museum, and access to the Bighorn National Forest via Red Grade Road - all within 10 minutes from your door. And whenever you need to travel outside the immediate locale for business, shopping, or leisure, the city of Sheridan is a painless 15-minute drive. Quite simply, this property has it all. Don't let this one get away, it's truly one of a kind!
