Yes, while the interiors have the power to delight, the ranch’s most impressive feature is its sublime Wasatch Mountain landscape, including the peak of the 12,000-foot Mount Timpanogoswhich envelops the verdant estate. The land is also situated on the fringe of Deer Creek Reservoir and the Provo River.
Alongside these domestic spaces, this working ranch includes several barns and a horse pasture which Robert used to create a sanctuary for the horses. These hobby houses include a further two working kitchens and wooden benches which are suitable for farm work.
Robert has lived on the ranch since 1996 but has listed the home with plans to focus on his other ranch in ‘Sundance in nearby Provo Canyon,’ he shared with The Wall Street Journal. The actor also owns homes in California and Santa Fe in New Mexico.
