Building with Intention: Our Jeremy Ranch Project and What’s Ahead for Citizen Builders
At Citizen Builders, we believe the best projects are never rushed, they’re carefully considered, thoughtfully designed, and built with a deep respect for both place and process. Our Jeremy Ranch project is a perfect example of that philosophy in action, and it represents not only where we are today, but where we’re headed next.
Located in one of Summit County’s most sought-after mountain communities, this home has been quietly taking shape behind the scenes for over eight months. While the public reveals are still to come, we wanted to pull back the curtain and share what makes this project, and this moment for Citizen Builders, so meaningful.
Why Jeremy Ranch (and Why It Matters)
Jeremy Ranch sits at a unique crossroads of mountain living and accessibility. Just minutes from Park City, Summit Park, and the Salt Lake Valley, it offers the privacy and serenity of a mountain setting without sacrificing convenience. For homeowners who want four-season living, stunning natural surroundings, and proximity to world-class recreation, this area is hard to beat.
Building in Jeremy Ranch — and throughout Summit County — requires a very specific skill set. The terrain, weather conditions, permitting processes, and architectural expectations are vastly different from valley construction. It demands foresight, adaptability, and a team that understands how to execute at a high level in a mountain environment.
This project was designed with that reality in mind from day one.
A Project Built Over Time, Not Overnight
One of the biggest misconceptions about high-end construction is that the most impressive results happen quickly. In reality, the opposite is true.
Our Jeremy Ranch home has been in the works for more than eight months, and that timeline is intentional. From early planning and architectural coordination to engineering, selections, and long-lead materials, this project required patience and precision long before construction ever began.
Behind the scenes, that meant:
Extensive pre-construction planning
Thoughtful collaboration with designers and engineers
Navigating Summit County requirements
Coordinating trades well in advance
Making design decisions that balance beauty, durability, and performance in a mountain climate
By the time walls started going up, much of the most important work had already been done.
Designed for Mountain Living
Homes in Jeremy Ranch, Park City, and Summit Park aren’t just about aesthetics, they’re about how the home lives.
This project was approached with a deep understanding of mountain lifestyles:
Spaces designed for gathering after long ski days
Layouts that flow seamlessly for entertaining
Materials selected for longevity and performance
Thoughtful storage for gear and seasonal living
Windows and orientation that maximize light and views
Every decision was made with intention, knowing this home needed to feel elevated yet livable, refined yet comfortable.
Momentum Beyond Summit County
While Jeremy Ranch is a standout project, it’s only one piece of a much bigger picture.
Citizen Builders is currently managing multiple large-scale projects throughout Salt Lake City and Sandy, many of which are nearing major reveal phases. These homes, ranging from full gut remodels to complex additions, have also been in development for eight months or more.
What ties all of these projects together is not a specific style, but a shared approach:
Clear communication
Strong pre-construction planning
The ability to pivot when conditions change
Deep experience in remodels, additions, and high-end custom work
We don’t rush projects to market. We build them correctly, even when that means the most exciting moments happen later.
Big Reveals Are Coming
As we move into the next phase of the year, we’re excited to finally begin sharing what we’ve been working on.
The Jeremy Ranch project, along with several Salt Lake City and Sandy homes, will soon move from behind-the-scenes progress to visible transformation. These reveals represent months of coordination, problem-solving, and craftsmanship, the kind of work that isn’t always flashy in the moment, but speaks for itself in the end.
Building for the Long Term
Whether we’re building in Jeremy Ranch, Summit Park, Park City, Salt Lake City, or Sandy, our goal remains the same: to create homes that stand the test of time, structurally, functionally, and aesthetically.
If you’re considering a remodel, addition, or custom project in Summit County or the Salt Lake Valley, now is the time to start the conversation. The most successful builds don’t begin with construction, they begin with planning.
We can’t wait to share what’s next.
