Auction Announced for Mountain Mansion in Prestigious Sun Valley, ID by DeCaro Luxury Auctions
Contemporary Estate with Antique Irish Bar to be Sold on November 2nd
SUN VALLEY, Idaho, Oct. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- DeCaro Luxury Auctions has announced an absolute auction on November 2, 2015 for 86 Gimlet Road, an 11-bedroom, 14-bathroom mansion located in the private community of Gimlet in Sun Valley, Idaho. The sprawling 13-acre property features unparalleled 360 degree views including Bald Mountain and the Boulder Mountain range.
"86 Gimlet Road was built with rare materials from all over the world. The stone walkway in the front of the property was imported from Yangtze River Valley, China and the pillars in the kitchen were excavated from a river in Egypt; these accents create character in the home that can never be replicated," said Daniel DeCaro, CEO and founder of DeCaro Luxury Auctions. "The home is located next to hundreds of acres of land, protected by the Bureau of Land Management. There's no telling when another opportunity to purchase a property as spectacular as this one will arise."
The 30,000-square-foot estate is comprised of a main home with three attached buildings – the northern wing, the main wing and the entertainment wing – as well as a detached guest house and a traditional red barn. The red barn features a basketball court and additional recreation space, as well as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom caretaker's apartment. 86 Gimlet Road also contains a salt water swimming pool and hot tub; a cabana with a dining area, an outdoor grill and a fireplace; and a tennis court.
The core of the home features a grand great room with two-story vaulted ceilings, custom cast iron chandeliers, a fireplace and a retractable window wall that opens to an outdoor entertaining space. Adjacent to the great room is the home's gourmet kitchen, which boasts a large center island with ancient Egyptian pillars, a walk-in refrigerator and an attached dining area.
The estate's master suite is located on the second floor and includes a spacious bedroom with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace and a sitting room; an ensuite bathroom with his and hers vanity sinks, a Jacuzzi tub, a separate walk-in shower and a dressing area; as well as a private terrace with a spa that faces Bald Mountain.
The northern wing of the estate includes four bedrooms with Jack-and-Jill bathrooms, a sunken media room with a 105" flat-screen television, a family room with a loft, a laundry room, mud room and project room. A four-car drive-through garage is situated below this wing's living and entertaining rooms.
The home's entertaining wing features an imported full-service antique bar from Ireland, which has a stained glass ceiling and a bartender's door that allows access to behind the bar. Other rooms include a living room with a fireplace inlaid in 175-year-old red brick from Maine; a formal dining area with authentic ship lights and a retractable window wall; a lofted game room with an air hockey table, a ping-pong table and a movie area; and a fully-equipped exercise room with locker room. The exercise area opens out to the outdoor tennis court, pool and spa.
Located just five minutes from the world-famous Sun Valley Ski Resort, 86 Gimlet Road is situated in Gimlet, a prestigious private community south of Ketchum. Sun Valley was just this month voted the number two ski resort in the western United States by Ski Magazine. The estate is also located close to miles of paved and single-track mountain bike paths, the Bigwood River, a top trout fishing area, and between the Sun Valley and Valley Club golf courses in Blaine County, Idaho. The Sun Valley airport is also just 10 minutes away.
