Home Tour with Suncadia Broker Jeff Rau

If finding the perfect Suncadia property is a dream come true, then finding the right person to make that happen is equally important. At Suncadia, we have a team of brokers who are as passionate about the resort and community they work at as they are about helping families find their dream home. This week, we want to introduce you to Jeff Rau.

A former golf pro, Jeff spends a lot of time on Suncadia’s three golf courses when not showing homes and homesites to future members of the Suncadia community. “Tumble Creek is very special and the two resort courses, Prospector & Rope Rider are also at a championship level,” says Jeff. Last year, he and his wife had twins and spent a good part of the summer exploring the trails and getting into the 1,200-acre river conservancy. “Last summer we strapped the twins into our carry-all sacks and walked along the river. It was stunning,” he says. These are the kind of activities Jeff raves about to nature lovers, families and anyone looking to buy a home in Suncadia.

One listing he is particularly excited about is at 431 Equinox Drive, and features 5,267 feet of space that’s great for entertaining family and friends. The home stands out inside thanks to traditional mountain finishes with wood beams, wood tongue-n-groove ceilings and a large fireplace. The kitchen is an amateur chef’s dream: picture a Wolf range with double ovens, a Sub Zero fridge, under counter wine fridge, a hammered copper sink, and a massive island perfect for impromptu gatherings. On the main floor is a master bedroom, while four bedrooms with a huge media/gameroom are spread across the basement. What else could a family want? How about a wine cellar, a bunk bedroom, and a large loft space area with additional beds for hosting kids sleepovers. “This home screams fun and is great for multi families with a lot of kids. It could easily sleep 18, and maybe more,” says Jeff.

Of course, a great Suncadia home is as much about the interiors as it is about the exteriors. Set on the 17th hole of the Prospector Golf Course, this home has a great outdoor living space with a built in BBQ, a fire pit, and flagstone patio. Ask Jeff what kind of family might want to live here and he says, “I picture a large family with a lot of kids or a family that likes to bring over their friends. And because Suncadia is only 80 miles from Seattle, it’s super easy for friends to visit on the weekends.”
