This brand new home is located inside the prestigious Snake River Sporting Club in Jackson, Wyoming. While being private, secure and secluded on its own quarter-of-an-acre plot, the home also benefits from all the communal facilities that this VIP resort has to offer, including a Weiskopf-designed golf course, equestrian facilities, swimming pools, tennis courts, restaurants and hiking trails.

Available via Christie's International Real Estate for $2.8 million (£2.1m), the home has been cleverly designed to make the most of the views across Snake River Canyon and the towering peaks of Bridger-Teton National Forest. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow plenty of light to spill indoors and provide a seamless connection to the attractive woodland beyond.
