Park City Real Estate
Park City is world renowned as one of the great resort areas in North America. With boutique shops and incredible dining areas on the historic Main Street, world-class ski resorts, and the stunning beauty of the Wasatch Mountains, Park City is hard to beat. The city was founded as a silver mining town in the 1860s. Although today the population is just over 7,000 residents, in 1900 the mining town was in full operation and over 10,000 people called it home. As silver mining came to an end in the 1970s, skiing quickly took its place (the first ski run was started in 1963) and now the city boasts three world class resorts: Deer Valley, Park City Mountain Resort, and The Canyons. In 2002, Park City was host to numerous events at the Winter Olympics and today boasts Utah’s Olympic Park. Park City is ideally located a short 30 minutes from the Salt Lake International Airport.
Whether you are looking for a primary residence, a second home, a condo or timeshare, or an investment property there are numerous developments in the greater Park City area to choose from. Some of the most popular are the Old Town area of Park City, the ski in/ski out properties in Deer Valley, The Canyons, and the Park City Mountain Resort, and the growing number of golf course communities like Promontory, Glenwild, Tuhaye, Hideout Canyon, Victory Ranch, and The Red Ledges. These communities cater to families and offer year round amenities.
