Four Seasons a perennial Teton Village leader

When it comes to real estate in Jackson Hole, few neighborhoods vibrate with the intensity of Teton Village. And within the tiny hamlet at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort the beating heart is clearly Four Seasons in Jackson Hole. Since opening its doors in December 2003, Four Seasons has dominated both the Teton [...]

Not quite ski-in, ski-out Jackson Hole condos driving resurgence

Currently there are 37 condos listed below $1 million in the Aspens/Racquet Club and Teton Village, with 20 listed below $500,000. While there are another 26 Jackson Hole condos listed above $1 million to nearly $4 million, the lower half of the market has driven the resurgence of ski properties in the last several quarters. [...]

Cottonwood Park: Jackson Hole’s working class hero

It may be hard to imagine today, but in 1984 when the first Cottonwood Park homes were under construction, the southwestern corner of Jackson looked almost as rural as the ranch lands that define the landscape south of High School Road today. There were no sprawling school campuses with synthetic sports fields. No apartment complexes. [...]

Teton Village, Four Seasons leading JH sales

Teton Village is already where it’s at, even though it is still three weeks until they power up the lifts at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and the season’s first big snowfall remains beyond the western horizon. This week’s Teton County Multiple Listing Service Hotsheet reports four Teton Village properties under contract and one closing. Two [...]

Neighborhood focus: Melody Ranch humming right along

For a model of consistency prior to and after the beginning of the current recession in September 2008, Melody Ranch is hard to beat. A September 13 closing on a 4-bed, 2,320-square-foot home listed at $729,000 was the 14th in the last 12 months. During the previous 12 months, from October 2009 to October 2010, [...]

June sales signal strong summer

June was yet another solid month for real estate sales in Jackson Hole, with 20 residential closings reported for a total sales volume of approximately $23 million. Additionally, there were six building site sales reported to Teton County Multiple Listing Service for approximately $11 million in volume. Leading the way was the sale of Ranch [...]

Jackson Hole’s low end reverts to 2000

Turns out there really are $100,000 bills, and they have a picture of Woodrow Wilson on them. Thank you, Wikipedia. When I wrote on jhpropertyguide.com earlier this week about the recent price reductions on a pair of 2-bed condos to at or below $100,000, the mention of such a denomination was only meant to be [...]

By the numbers: The Jackson Hole single-family home market

A home can be any dwelling from a studio condominium to a sprawling mansion, but most people’s idea of a home, and the meat of the Jackson Hole residential market is a freestanding single-family house. There are currently 285 single-family homes listed in Teton County Multiple Listing Service, or about 62 percent of the 455 [...]

Watching the clouds float by at Bar BC Ranch

I’m sitting in one of Jackson Hole’s most scenic offices this afternoon. That picture to the right was taken earlier this month at Bar BC Ranch just up the road from the sales office, where I’ll be until 6 p.m. today. While I have not seen a rainbow at the ranch this summer, I almost [...]

Neighborhood Focus: Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis

For such a large (more than 200 homesites, most of them developed) and established (more than 40 years) community, the current inventory of active listings in Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis is surprisingly homogenous. Of the 12 available properties, 8 are priced between $1.195 million and $1.525 million. Additional interesting facts include: Ironically, the only [...]
