The Huntsman Compound, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

Today's expansive property belongs to billionaire industrialist Jon Huntsman Sr., father of Jon Huntsman Jr, the governor of Utah. The Deseret News says that Huntsman, Sr. put his 20,000-square-foot vacation property at the Deer Valley resort on the market in order to use the money for other causes including fighting cancer at the hospital that bears his name, the Huntsman Cancer Institute. He has also been spending more time fly-fishing in Idaho and he is also working on a development called Huntsman Springs.

This Utah property is listed at $55 million and includes three lots for a total of 63.83 acres. The main house is a 12-bedroom home with a game room, fitness room and two custom-built water features. The property also includes a pool and the land could be used for several more homes. The estate has been on the market for about two months, and the real estate agent says she has received several inquiries. It is the most expensive home in the area.
