About the property
Perched Atop Bald Rock: Panoramic 3.79-Acre Mountain Retreat
Perched at the summit of Bald Rock, 420 Feldspar Lane is a rare combination of commanding long-range mountain vistas and generous, usable acreage. The home occupies 3.79 private acres where stone outcrops and planted beds provide immediate character; from the main living areas the view is the daily backdrop — broad, layered ridgelines that change with the seasons.
Step inside to an open-plan main level where living, dining and a gourmet kitchen connect through sightlines and purposeful sightlines to the view beyond. Large doors and windows frame the mountains and lead to a covered grilling porch that will become your go-to for dinners with a view. The primary suite is intentionally private: a cozy fireplace anchors the space, a very large walk-in closet handles storage with ease, and the adjoining bathroom offers room to relax after a hike. Three additional bedrooms give family and guests comfortable separation, and thoughtful circulation keeps everyday living convenient.
Upstairs, a lively game room awaits — outfitted for pool, pinball and easy entertainment, it’s a natural hangout for kids or weekend visitors. Practical systems include air conditioning, in-unit laundry and a two-car garage, all subtle conveniences that support the rustic-but-refined lifestyle. Outdoors, a marked trail leads from the yard to a private, child-friendly playground set among native boulders and another viewpoint — an off-the-beaten-path place for grandchildren to explore. A stone fire pit creates a convivial focal point for evening gatherings and star watching.
This property feels private yet accessible: a peaceful mountain neighborhood setting with short drives to nearby trails, recreation and local amenities. Built in 2001 and maintained with respect for the property’s natural strengths, the house offers the rugged warmth of mountain living combined with modern comforts and flexible spaces for living, working and entertaining. Whether you’re seeking a full-time mountain lifestyle or a second-home sanctuary, 420 Feldspar Lane is a distinctive offering on one of the west-facing summits in the Sapphire area.

Editorial market perspective
This listing is priced at $2,850,000 — remarkably aligned with the automated valuation midpoint of $2,850,000 (estimate confidence 0.65), which supports the broker’s asking price for a premium mountain-view residence on nearly 3.8 acres. In the Sapphire and greater mountain retreat market, supply for high-end, view-driven single-family homes tends to be constrained: lots with long-range panoramas and usable acreage are uncommon, so active buyers face limited comparable inventory. That scarcity has generally supported price stability for similar properties and draws both primary buyers seeking lifestyle change and second-home purchasers prioritizing privacy and outdoor access.
Buyers should understand that mountain and luxury rural markets are often seasonal — demand typically increases in spring and early summer — and that tailored financing or cash offers are common in top-tier transactions. For sellers, the alignment between list price and automated valuation suggests the property is competitively positioned; for buyers, the strength of the view, private trail and entertainment-ready interior make this a compelling opportunity in a low-inventory segment. Work with a local agent to verify comparable sales, confirm any recent updates, and position offers that reflect both the physical attributes and the rare nature of Bald Rock vantage properties.
