CHALK CREEK RETREAT

Nestled on 19.2 pristine acres along Chalk Creek Road, this exceptional mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of privacy, recreation, and accessibility just nine miles east of Coalville, Utah. The property features a substantial 4,800± square-foot fully furnished five-bedroom, four-bathroom home strategically positioned on an upper plateau to capture stunning southern views of the creek and surrounding mountains, while a dedicated entertainment pavilion, pond, and horse facilities occupy the lower level adjacent to Chalk Creek’s excellent fishing waters. With 15 acre-feet of water rights, a spring-fed pond, and about a half mile of creek frontage, this versatile estate serves equally well as a year-round residence or luxury retreat for entertaining, all while maintaining complete privacy within a rural subdivision and offering convenient access to world-class skiing at Park City Mountain Resort, Deer Valley Resort, and other premier Utah destinations via nearby I-80.

After enjoying and improving the retreat over the last six years, the owners have made the difficult decision to sell due to estate planning considerations.

The retreat is located nine miles east of Coalville, Utah, at 1980 East Chalk Creek Road. Coalville, the county seat of Summit County, sits directly on I-80 with its own freeway exit, providing convenient access in all directions.

The property encompasses just over 19 acres within a well-established rural subdivision created 20 years ago. This five-lot development features generous parcels of at least 20 acres each, all situated along the same road. While some lots have been developed with homes, others remain vacant. The neighboring properties on either side contain a single residence on their 20-plus-acre parcels, ensuring complete privacy with no close neighbors.

The land itself is uniquely configured, stretching nearly 650 feet along the Chalk Creek Road frontage and extending nearly a quarter mile south across Chalk Creek. The property’s topography features two distinct levels: the upper plateau near the road remains relatively flat for approximately 150 feet before gently sloping down 60 feet to a lower plateau that continues to the creek bottom.

The main residence sits strategically on the upper plateau close to the road but remains completely hidden from view behind a large, landscaped berm planted with trees. The lower plateau, about 60 vertical feet below the house, contains the pavilion with kitchen facilities, a pond, a new horse barn, and an outdoor arena. This lower area provides direct access to Chalk Creek and its excellent fishing opportunities, creating a perfect recreational zone separated from the main living area above.

The property features a substantial 4,800± square-foot home built in 2021. The two-story residence includes five bedrooms and four bathrooms, with the main floor positioned at street level housing the master bedroom with an en-suite full bathroom, a guest bedroom, and a second full bathroom. The kitchen opens seamlessly into a spacious living area that extends to a covered deck, while the living space also connects to a dining room featuring a distinctive semi-circle of windows. The basement level has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, one with a sauna, as well as a dedicated media room and a separate game room. The entire home is strategically oriented southward to capture views of the ridge, Chalk Creek, and the dramatic mountain that rises 1,000 vertical feet above the creek. The home is being sold fully furnished.

The lower plateau showcases additional improvements centered around a large pavilion that serves as the utility hub for the area, providing electricity and water service. This pavilion features a connected kitchen and built-in outdoor grill, creating an ideal entertainment space complemented by a large storage unit and a pond. All areas, including the roadway connecting the highway to the lower improvements, are heavily graveled for excellent drainage and mud-free access year-round. While the property is easily navigated by side-by-sides and four-wheelers, full-sized vehicles can also access the lower level.

The horse facilities include a barn with hardware for horse stalls that remains unassembled, allowing the next owner to customize the configuration to their specific needs. The barn features a concrete center pad with gravel flooring on one side—an appropriate choice for horse stall areas. While the barn currently lacks electricity and running water, these utilities are accessible from the nearby pavilion. The entire property, excluding the river area, is enclosed with climb-proof horse fencing that exceeds standard height requirements and is specifically designed for equine safety. Additionally, a pasture area of approximately four acres is separately fenced for grazing.

The property includes substantial water rights of 15 acre-feet, accessed through a diesel-powered pump system located near the horse barn that draws directly from the river via underground piping. Additionally, a natural spring feeds the on-site pond, which then drains back into the creek, creating a continuous water flow system.

Chalk Creek flows for about a half mile along the southern and western boundaries before following its natural meandering course as it continues down the valley. The property boundary extends across the creek and up the hillside approximately 20 feet on the southern bank, providing direct water access and fishing opportunities. Several neighbors have collaborated to enhance the creek’s habitat, creating excellent fishing conditions along this scenic waterway.

As a tributary of the Weber River, Chalk Creek connects to one of northern Utah’s most significant water systems. The Weber River flows through Morgan and eventually reaches the Great Salt Lake, supported by multiple reservoirs along its course, making this creek part of a vital regional watershed that enhances both the property’s value and its recreational opportunities.

This property offers exceptional versatility as either a year-round primary residence or an ideal retreat for entertaining extended family and large groups of guests. With 4,800± square feet in the main house featuring five bedrooms, plus the dedicated entertaining pavilion on the lower level, the property provides ample space for hosting while maintaining privacy and comfort. The absence of a homeowner association ensures complete freedom in property use and modifications. For families, Coalville provides comprehensive educational options with grade school through high school available locally, making it practical for year-round living while still offering the privacy and recreational opportunities of a rural mountain retreat.
