LE REFUGE
This 40 acre custom built five-bedroom home is perched on a butte with rolling grasslands and panoramic views of the entire valley.
For large families, or individuals looking for privacy and convenience in a beautifully designed and decorated home, discover Le Refuge. This 12,509-square foot, five-suite legacy estate perched on a hilltop with sweeping views of Jackson Hole, including the Tetons, has everything one could imagine, yet is only a ten minute drive from downtown. This unique gem offers endless possibilities and privacy. Myriad adventures await. Watch sunrises and sunsets from the great room’s wall of windows, which frame the Tetons, or from the custom hot tub on the deck off the master wing. Marvel at moose and elk wandering through the expansive, well maintained property; play foosball in the game room; or enjoy all the outdoor amenities, including horseshoes, and bocce ball. As lovely as staying in and curling up on a couch by the Ranch’s outdoor fireplace with a book or magazine sounds, it’s likely that the views through the Ranch’s windows will inspire you to get out and explore the valley. Le Refuge is the perfect jumping off point for adventures, only 20 minutes from Grand Teton National Park. Owners can even hop on the paved pathway (for pedestrians and bicyclists; no motorized vehicles allowed) at the bottom of the Ranch’s driveway and ride a bicycle five miles into town or, if one is feeling ambitious, 25 miles to Jenny Lake in the center of Grand Teton National Park. After a day of exploring, come home to the ultimate basecamp to relax. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by an expansive great room that has floor to ceiling windows that frame the Tetons. Grab a refreshing drink from the fully equipped bar and kick back by the sprawling gas fireplace. On a summer’s day, you can take advantage of the outdoor kitchen featuring a grill, pizza oven, and gas fireplace, or enjoy a personal chef-cooked meal prepared in the home’s gourmet kitchen. The home’s main level offers three suites. The luxurious primary bedroom suite features two walk-in closets and two bathrooms that include a freestanding deep-soaking bathtub set in a corner of windows, and an expansive sauna shower, where one can relax and enjoy lovely views. The junior primary suite boasts a private patio overlooking the pond and on-suite bathroom with a freestanding deep-soaking tub. A media room provides a flexible space to either enjoy a movie, read a book, or utilize the space as an office if work calls (but don’t let it!).
