913 E Steam Engine DR, Brian Head, UT 84719

Property Description

High in the mountains of Brian Head, Utah, you'll find this impressive .53 acre wooded lot, located in the coveted upper Steam Engine area. This area is the location of many of Brian Head's larger, premium cabins. If you were to build a cabin here, the size of this lot could provide ample space for privacy. The property offers the possibility of some mountain views if you're strategic in choosing a building site and cabin design to take best advantage of the lot's location. This lot has many features that are attractive to builders including a gradual slope. It is possible that all utilities may be available; buyer to verify. The frontage is 168 ft., while one side is 78 feet, the other is 211 feet and the back property line which is at an angle is 216 feet (dimensions taken from county GIS, but buyer may opt for a survey at their expense to mark corners). Water and sewer are at the street in front of the lot. Neighbor cabins (across the street and adjacent) show electricity and natural gas, but buyer should verify these are available to their lot. The roads are paved all the way to the lot, and maintained and cleared in the winter. Brian Head has a history of offering excellent cell reception with solid mobile data access and a choice of several cable TV providers, plus dish and Internet options. This tends to be a tranquil, quiet subdivision with minimal traffic, yet it is less than a 10-minute drive to either Giant Steps Lodge or Navajo Lodge at the Brian Head Ski Resort. This subdivision is conveniently located between these two main lodges. The town of Brian Head recently added a winter shuttle stop close by. This stop is "by text only", which means that there is no regular shuttle traffic to the area. However, pickups and drop-offs are available for the occasional person or group who might want to take advantage of it. The town shuttle has historically been available at peak times during the winter ski season. When available, the shuttle makes it easy for everyone in your group to split up and go your separate ways without needing multiple cars while you're in town over the winter holidays and during the resort's highest-traffic days and weekends. It is also a nice option if you don't enjoy driving in the snow; you can leave the transportation to experienced local drivers who are well-equipped to transport your group to the local ski lodges, stores and restaurants. The shuttle's availability tends to also be a great selling point with potential renters. Shuttle service isn't universally available to all of the cabins in the town of Brian Head. So if your plan is to build your dream cabin and rent it out for part of the year to offset monthly expenses, the shuttle's availability in this location is a direct advantage that could possibly help you to attract interested renters to the property. The Brian Head Resort offers skiing, snowboarding and tubing in the winter and mountain biking, ziplining and a climbing wall in the summer. The powder in Brian Head is comparable to what you'll find at Park City and similar Utah resorts, which makes it a popular ski and snowboard getaway for outdoor enthusiasts from southern California, Nevada (particularly Las Vegas and its nearby cities) and other locations around the world. In late 2019, Mountain Capital Partners acquired the Brian Head Ski Resort from its previous owner. Mountain Capital Partners owns and manages multiple ski resorts and mountain bike parks in Utah and other nearby states including Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Since 2012, there have been many improvements to the resort that have made it an increasingly appealing place to vacation. A few of the many recent upgrades include high-speed chairlifts and the availability of night skiing. Overall, Brian Head is a fantastic location for making fun family memories. This property is an ideal jumping off point for road trips to other noteworthy destinations in Utah and beyond. According to Google Maps, it's approximately 60 miles from this lot to Bryce Canyon National Park, and about 71 miles to Zion National Park. It's about 246 miles from this property to Salt Lake City, and about 203 miles to Las Vegas.
