Overview of House and Neighborhood

We've moved out of the area and we have to sell our beautiful fully-custom designer home on the border of St George and Ivins in Southern Utah.

The Cliffs neighborhood information

Views

As the lot for #96 borders on the Sand Hollow wash and Tortoise Reserve, space is protected behind the home. The views seen below will always be unobstructed. #96 offers the best views in St George for any house priced under a million dollars and its views rival those of many multi-million dollar homes in the area.

As explained on the "Overview" page, the colors of the paint and textiles throughout the house were carefully chosen to reflect the colors seen outside the windows, creating a wholistic and peaceful overall effect.
