In the prestigious, private community of Lonesome Valley, this perfectly positioned 1.71 acre homesite lot sits on an elevated, eastern-sloping hill, offering breathtaking panoramic views to the south over Sapphire Valley and to the east of the majestic Cow Rock Mountain. In the afternoons, the setting sun bathes the rock face in a vibrant light, creating a truly captivating focal point. The property also fronts a common area below the building site which provides convenient access to an extensive network of private trails. Included with the purchase are thoughtfully designed plans for a remarkable quintessential Lonesome Valley home with a "twist." This exceptional design maximizes the stunning views while remaining visually harmonious with the surrounding valley properties. Notable features include a central courtyard, exceptionally private four-bedroom suites, numerous large aluminum-clad windows and steel doors, and five true masonry fireplaces. This inclusion represents a significant saving of time and effort for the new owner. Furthermore, the groundwork for construction is already in place. With a set of working plans approved by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) and prepared by the esteemed Edgens and Herzog Architects, building could commence shortly after closing. The highly regarded contractor, Sadlon and Associates, is already lined up and prepared to begin work. The new owner would only need to finalize interior design details in collaboration with the architect and interior designer. Lonesome Valley offers a unique lifestyle within a private, gated community. Residents enjoy miles of hiking trails, a lake for fishing and swimming, a spa, a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and the renowned Canyon Kitchen restaurant. Despite its secluded ambiance, the community is conveniently located just five minutes from grocery shopping and other amenities.
