Established golfing community with great amenities and open spaces

On the edge of St. George, Sunbrook is a tranquil community with luxurious amenities and spectacular views. The master-planned development caters to outdoor desert lifestyles and is popular among retirees, professionals and families. “Sunbrook was developed in the 1990s as a golfing community with a 27-hole course. There’s a mix of older and newer housing, and the area is very desirable. There’s not much room left to build inside the community, but new housing is going up all around it. It’s a beautiful area,” says Malissa Kelsch, a real estate agent with Think Realty with 18 years of experience. The community maintains a recreation center with tennis courts, a swimming pool, fitness facilities and a playground. It’s also near the hiking trails of Box Canyon, Red Mountain and Snow Canyon State Park. Bordered on one side by the Santa Clara River, this hilltop neighborhood provides views of snow-capped mountains in winter and red rock mountains all year round.

Classic architecture and contemporary designs meet around the fairway

Six and a half miles from the historic downtown district, the townhouses and single-family homes of Sunbrook surround a centralized golf course. The planned development is divided into ten subdivisions, with some overlooking Box Canyon and others highlighting the golf course. But all of them have views of stunning Southern Utah landscapes. The community has a mix of Mediterranean and Spanish influences and contemporary styles. Many of the homes have 12-foot ceilings, giving the house a sense of openness, and tree-lined streets add to the feeling of suburbia. There’s a homeowner's association with varying fees depending on the subdivision. Homes sell for an average price of $665,000 after 67 days on the market. Townhouses begin around $335,000 and continue to $500,000, while single-family homes range from $520,000 to $1.4 million depending on the subdivision, lot size and square footage.

Golf, splash pads and hiking trails

Sunbrook Golf Club is one of four golf courses maintained by the city. Its meticulously crafted greens are open year-round, and the course is part of the famous Red Rock Golf Trail. It features three nine-hole zones with red sand traps, significant water hazards and black lava fields. “Sunbrook was private for years, but it’s been opened to the public so people can have a membership without living in the neighborhood,” says Cody Steck, a Realtor with Real Broker and a decade of experience. Nineteen-acre Mathis Park is a long-standing St. George feature just off Dixie Drive. The land was donated by a local family, and some of the original features were washed away in a 2005 flood. It was rebuilt in 2008 with a disc golf course and 120 trees along a walking path. Just beyond the community, Blake Memorial Park is six acres of open green grass and trees with a well-maintained playground and walking path. Eleven miles north, Snow Canyon State Park is an expansive preserve of sprawling red sandstone vistas, lava tubes, petrified sand dunes and miles of hiking trails. Fire Lake Park at Ivins Reservoir offers an artificial lake for water skiing and fishing nine miles northwest of the golf community.

Flash floods and wildfire risks

Sunbrook is at risk of wildfires and flash flooding. Wildfires can spread rapidly in extreme heat and high winds, and flash flooding occurs when heavy rains fall in a short period. To protect against these natural disasters, the city ensures buildings meet current construction codes, flammable debris is kept to a minimum and drainage areas are kept unblocked.
