This $72.5 Million Utah Ranch's 7,000+ Rugged Acres Include a Backcountry Camp
An absolutely massive ranch just an hour from Salt Lake City could become one of the most expensive properties ever sold in Utah. Sheep Creek Canyon Ranch in Morgan County, all 7,000-plus acres of it, has just hit the market for an incredible $72.5 million. Along with vast open spaces, the property includes a French-inspired main home, a speakeasy/guest house, and equestrian facilities. There's even a backcountry tented camp. Sam R. Sanders and Tim Anderson at Swan Land Company hold the listing.

'The thoughtfully designed, luxurious main home in combination with the speakeasy and equestrian facilities are stunning, but over four miles of live water are really the icing on the cake. With unmatched privacy yet incredible accessibility, water resources, and limitless recreational opportunities, this is one of the finest properties one can buy in the West at this time.' RELATED: A $65 Million Coastal Ranch Near Santa Barbara Comes With an Abalone Farm Situated a couple miles downstream of the East Fork Reservoir, the ranch includes more than a mile of the East Fork River and more than three miles of Sheep Creek. The former offers avenues for trout fishing, while on the land you're likely to spot bull elk and mule deer. Recreationally, trails are available for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. And nearby is some of Utah's best skiing and golfing. When it comes to livability, the 6,500-square-foot main residence offers five bedrooms, all with ensuite baths. Offered fully furnished, the home sports a modern French farmhouse aesthetic, with mint green cabinetry in several rooms, a stately home office, and an old-school safe, which is the centerpiece of the mudroom. The speakeasy, meanwhile, is situated above the garage and designed for casual entertaining. The wood-and-brick structure is meant to harken back to 1920s New York City, with lush velvet seating in the living area and a billiards table accompanied by a bar for slinging drinks. There are also two bedrooms for guests who might pop in from time to time. Classic ranch-faring activities include a barn equipped with four horse stalls, a tack room, feed storage, and a wash stall. The animals can graze outside in fenced corrals and paddocks. And, for those who like to get out into the wilderness without all the conveniences of a home, the southern portion of the property has a backcountry campsite with a rustic wall tent, wood stove, camp shower, outhouse, and—its own version of luxury—a wood-fired hot tub for extra of Robb Report The 10 Priciest Neighborhoods in America (And How They Got to Be That Way) In Pictures: Most Expensive Properties Click here to read the full article.

This $6 Million Southwestern-Style Estate in Central California Has a Helipad for Your Chopper
Fresno, California, or, more specifically, the census-designated place known as Friant, may not be the first place that comes to mind when you envision multimillion-dollar living, but for one couple it was just the ticket. Back in the 1990s, the local pair saw great potential in this Central California property, trading their home at the time plus $100,000 to make it their own. Instead of tearing down the original home that stood on the 6.4-acre rural property, they donated it to the local fire department and SWAT team for training exercises. And, during the process of building up the more than 6,000-square-foot compound, they lived in a tiny guest house with their pets. More from Robb Report Meet the Speed Brokers That Will Help You Drive 200 MPH-Legally Meet the Bush Pilots That Navigate Alaska's Most Perilous Terrain Courtney Love's Former Manhattan Loft Is Up for Grabs at $9.5 Million What they ended up with is a highly personalized abode modeled on the Southwestern-style architecture they saw admired during trips to New Mexico and Arizona. The six-bedroom, five-bath complex is now on the market for $6 million, with Sarah Hedrick at Realty Concepts holding the listing. To achieve an authentic Santa Fe style, the house was built with hand-troweled plaster walls, and Saltillo floor tile is found throughout the home, from the high-ceilinged living room to the bathrooms. The chef's kitchen sports travertine countertops, dual copper sinks, and not just one but two pantries. There's a mini wine fridge here too, but you'll want to store most of your vino in the 1,600-bottle wine cellar, which is accessible by elevator and has a tasting room, to boot. The primary bedroom, meanwhile, has its own gas fireplace—one of five throughout the property. The closets here are lined with cedar, and the ensuite bathroom includes a jetted tub as well as a sauna/steam shower. Friends or family members can make use of the two separate guest houses. Outside, the owners have created a resort-style paradise, complete with a built-in barbecue and outdoor fireplace for alfresco dining. The pool is accompanied by a mosaic-tiled hot tub, and there are ample options for sports enthusiasts. The court complex encompasses tennis, pickleball, and basketball, and there's a putting green for perfecting your stroke. Gearheads can keep up to 14 cars in the massive garage, and if you're planning to arrive via helicopter—because why not?—a helipad is found on the grounds for your convenience. While the Southwestern-inspired residence is perhaps one-of-a-kind in its Central California setting, Fresno and its surrounding towns are steeped in agricultural history. Among the area's most interesting properties is a grand, 1910 Colonial Revival in nearby Del Rey that hit the market earlier this year for $4 of Robb Report The 10 Priciest Neighborhoods in America (And How They Got to Be That Way) In Pictures: Most Expensive Properties Click here to read the full article.

Restomods From Helderburg Defenders in Photos
More from Robb Report This 1969 Mustang Restomod Has One of Mario Andretti's Old Engines. Now It Could Fetch $1 Million.

These ultra-luxe restomods, from Helderburg Defenders, had no problem roaring through the powder covering the ground during our test drives. A Defender 90 reenvisioned by Helderburg. Helderburg will tune and tweak the original 2.5-liter turbo-diesel engine to deliver a maximum of 220 hp and 440 ft lbs of torque. The dashboard shape and control locations are unchanged, but there's plenty new, including an Alpine touchscreen display. The differential engagement is a bit reluctant, as is the shifter attached to the five-speed transmission, giving the driving experience a decidedly traditional feel. The door handles may look like the same flat-black plastic units that came from the factory, but they're actually made of black anodized aluminum. The Alpine touchscreen display is connected to a sublime Focal sound system. The seats and many of the surfaces are wrapped in upholstery that comes in your choice of hides and hues. It's quite a package, each one built to customer demands. Since 2019, Helderburg Defenders has been taking a more traditional tack with its top-shelf, fully custom builds.
