There's gold in these hills, and we're not talking about the precious metal. No, we're talking about something in the foothills of Utah County that's even more rare and hard to find than river-panned nuggets-we're talking about a golden home-THE golden home. We're talking about a home so special that it could be your permanent residence or your weekend retreat. A place that is somehow refreshingly simple and nostalgic but beautifully modernized. Ounce for ounce, this home in Hobble Creek will have their new owner feeling like they've struck gold. We'll start where every great property does: location. At just over three miles up Hobble Creek Canyon, you're close enough to a grocery store (11 minutes, we counted) to have all the modern conveniences you want, yet somehow you're still in a mountain retreat that seems much farther away from civilization. It might be because you're on your own half-acre wooded lot. But we suspect it's because of the gentle babble of Hobble Creek itself, which runs through the neighborhood and offers a buffer between you and the mayhem of everything you leave behind when you cross that creek. The only traffic jam here is the family of wild turkey crossing your driveway, the only crowds are the bunches of leaves above you, gently jostled by the perfumed mountain breeze. This remodeled log-frame retreat sits on nearly half an acre of wooded wonder, just a chip shot from Hobble Creek Golf Course. Built to last, but built for comfort with that strong silhouette and wraparound deck perfect for morning coffee, or an evening glass of something stronger. Inside, you'll find five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and all the warm-wood vibes you'd expect-plus the updates you'd hope for. Over the past five years, this home's been thoughtfully and lovingly refreshed with modern finishes that still honor its mountain-cabin roots. Natural light pours through large windows, framing views of pines, peaks, and everything in between. The main living space is wide open and welcoming-ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or just watching the seasons change from the comfort of your couch. A wood burning fireplace adds cozy charm when the snow starts to fall, while vaulted ceilings and big windows keep things bright and airy year-round. Outside, that three-sided deck steals the show. Whether it's spotting deer in the scrub oak, stargazing in total quiet, or just grilling with friends, this is where memories happen. Parking? You've got options. A two-car garage, a 14x20 carport, and plenty of room for guests, toys, or trailers-because up here, adventure is a way of life. There are campgrounds, hiking trailheads, a trout-filled creek, or just acres and acres of woods and National Forest that are begging to be explored. Whether you're chasing weekend serenity or settling in for good, this tucked-away treasure is a goldmine.
