Superb Ski Residence in Sun Valley up for Auction

Initially listed for $5,995 million, the magnificent Howard Estate in Sun Valley, Idaho will go under the hammer at an auction conducted by Concierge Auctions and Sun Valley Sotheby’s International Realty on July 19. The three-level mansion boasts 5,900 square feel of luxe spaces and is set at the base of Bald Mountain.

With 5 bedrooms, six full baths, and one half bath, the residence offers everything in terms of comfort and luxury. The nature-inspired architecture of the house was created by Point Architects, while the beautiful interiors were made by Megan Edwards of Charles Stuhlberg Interiors. No minimum bid is required for this lovely ski home, which gives interested bidders the chance to make a really advantageous purchase in one of the best mountain destinations in the country.

The lavish residence was built in 2008 and it features all sorts of luxury amenities, including three decks (one with a hot tub and one with a fire pit), a gourmet chef’s kitchen, a media room/theater, a ski storage/mud room, a gorgeous master suite with jetted tub, and a lovely living room with huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

Even though this is an ideal home for winter vacations, it shouldn’t be perceived as a winter refuge alone. The Howard Estate is also a perfect summer residence, being placed in a great spot for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and even kayaking in the nearby rivers.
