Elite Outdoor Living & Terrain Integration
True luxury extends beyond the interior walls, blending seamlessly into Sandy’s premier natural corridor.
The Two-Story Covered Deck
Spanning over 1,000 square feet, this spectacular outdoor living space features structural mortise-and-tenon timber detailing and a premium outdoor kitchen nook with a high-end barbecue setup (served by dedicated gas lines). It provides a commanding, private viewing and dining venue overlooking the pristine canyons of Dimple Dell Regional Park on the west and the snow-capped Wasatch peaks to the east.
Infrastructure Excellence
Built to complement and withstand Northern Utah’s challenging topography, the custom home features a fully heated custom driveway powered by dedicated high-performance tankless boiler manifolds.
Multi-Generational Legacy &
Specialized Spaces
Château de la Fossette is uniquely engineered to grow with your family across generations, providing intimate children’s nooks alongside entirely autonomous secondary residences.
The Primary Retreat
A private haven complete with an intimate bedroom fireplace, an elegant spa-style en-suite bathroom, and separate, expansive walk-in closet suites.
Self-Contained Upper Apartment
A gorgeous upstairs flat featuring its own kitchenette and hearth room, bedroom, and dedicated laundry facilities; perfect for adult children or guests.
Basement Mother-in-Law Suite
A spacious apartment featuring a separate exterior entrance to ensure complete privacy and comfort for multi-generational living.
Creative & Play Hubs
Includes three additional bedroom suites with dedicated en-suite bathrooms, an upper-level school and craft room, a basement play area, and an oversized playroom tucked neatly above the garage layout.
The Lower Level: Wellness, Recreation & Custom Storage
Spanning an expansive 5,613 square feet, the beautifully finished basement serves as an exceptional private wellness wing and entertainment escape. This level’s massive, open layout is made possible by Gordon Milar’s signature suspended-slab concrete construction beneath the 4-car garage. By structurally suspending the garage floor, we unlocked vast, column-free subterranean square footage that standard homes lose, creating comfortable ceilings and entirely open, unobstructed living zones below.
The Fitness Hub
Engineered with architectural intention, the main home gym zone is privately situated directly beneath the sprawling back deck. This placement allows for incredible 14-foot soaring ceilings, creating a light, airy, commercial-scale environment perfect for premium equipment and advanced workout configurations.
The Gaming & Arcade Lounge
Located adjacent to the gym area, this custom recreation room serves as an ideal subterranean play space. Positioned below the structural suspended slab garage floors, this zone offers stable, highly functional 8-foot standard ceilings; perfectly proportioned for a dedicated retro arcade setup, custom media consoles, and family lounge seating.
The Entertainment Lounge
A massive secondary family room layout wired for immersive A/V.
Bespoke Hobby & Estate Storage
Obsessive attention to detail shows throughout the home’s organized design:
Custom Cabinetry Throughout — Closets throughout the home feature beautifully built custom closet cabinetry, eliminating standard wire shelving for a fully tailored wardrobe experience.
Open-Footprint Storage Rooms — Thanks to the suspended concrete slab engineering, the lower level features massive, open-concept storage rooms directly beneath the garages, providing clean, expansive, column-free spaces waiting for your custom layout or seasonal organization.
Mudroom & Specialized Storage — Features custom mudroom locker cabinetry — with personal, integrated electronics charging stations built into each locker — complemented downstairs by a unique custom-designed clothing and costume storage space.
Curation & Terrain Location
Uncompromising Landscape Framing — Privately bounded by a custom precast concrete privacy fence layout. The outdoor transition areas feature premium natural stone steps and pavers that lead to immediate, direct access corridors to local parks and backcountry bench trails.
Pristine Wilderness Corridor — Enjoy immediate, direct access from your property boundaries to the protected parks, equestrian paths, and backcountry recreation trails of Sandy’s Dimple Dell Regional Park.
Bespoke Staging Interior — Every level of the estate is uniquely staged and curated with an elite collection of antique and unique heirloom furniture pieces and custom designer lighting fixtures.
Premium Infrastructure & Master Artisan Systems
Behind the European masonry lies an incredibly robust mechanical framework and a masterclass in custom finishes. Gordon Milar Construction has seamlessly paired continuous, high-performance mechanical systems with authentic Old World materials.
Architectural Detailing & Handcrafted Finishes
Artisan Surface Profiles — Grounded by solid rift and quarter-sawn oak hardwood floors throughout, beautifully paired with handmade Zellige tile and hand-selected natural stone tile configurations.
Historic Timber Elements — Framed by traditional wood-clad windows, copper gutters and downspouts, and a timeless cedar shake roof. Reclaimed wood timbers add rich character throughout the interior spaces and to the structural exterior window headers.
Premium Millwork & Hardware — Anchored by solid-core interior doors outfitted with premium Emtek hardware throughout. Massive precast stone mantels frame the home’s four fireplaces, featuring three traditional open-front, wood-burning units for an authentic hearth experience, as well as an enclosed architectural front courtyard seating wall.
Master Kitchen Integration — Outfitted for elite hosting with a commanding 60” professional range, integrated dual fuel gas/wood stone pizza oven, and high-end built-in refrigerators and dishwashers finished with seamless matching custom cabinet fronts.
Mechanical Infrastructure & Climate Control
Zoned Climate Master — Driven by four high-efficiency furnaces and two continuous tankless water heaters. The HVAC system utilizes a hyper-targeted, separate zoning layout, cleanly splitting the gym/basement loads from the main level and primary suite environments.
Acoustic Soundproofing — Features specialized heavy-wall interior soundproofing wrapped throughout the primary suite layout for absolute acoustic privacy.
Elite Power Capabilities — Engineered for clean load management via an upgraded 600-amp commercial-grade electrical service panel. The château is completely pre-wired for seamless solar panel integration and backup battery array systems.
Modern Conveniences & Environmental Security
Integrated Media & Security — Pre-wired for automated motorized window shades throughout the estate, layered alongside built-in audio speakers throughout the home, and a full-perimeter security alarm system.
Resilient Protection Systems — Complete with a state-of-the-art property-wide integrated fire alarm and suppression sprinkler system, a dedicated active radon mitigation setup, and an integrated drinking fountain positioned inside the high-ceiling home gym hub.
Waterproof Armor Systems — All secondary garage floors, expansive multi-generational storage rooms, and the sprawling covered back deck (complete with a beautiful cedar soffit ceiling) are finished in a premium, commercial-grade waterproof Miracote and industrial epoxy coating.
