Pleasant View Utah Home Tour: The Grandview Tudor by REV Builders, a New Build With a Pool

This Pleasant View Utah home tour takes you inside the Grandview Tudor by REV Builders: 6,489 square feet, a resort-style pool, a sauna, and indoor climbing walls. It's a lot of house.

Pleasant View Utah Home Tour: The Grandview Tudor at a Glance

The Grandview Tudor by REV Builders is a 6,489-square-foot new build in Pleasant View, Utah, with 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, a 4-car garage, an indoor sauna, and an in-ground pool.

This home was showcase #11 in the Parade of Homes. It is not currently for sale, so think of this tour as a look at what's possible when you build custom in Northern Utah.

Here are the core specs straight from the tour:

The Double-Sided Fireplace and Helical Staircase

The first wow moments are a double-sided fireplace that warms two spaces at once and a helical staircase that acts like a sculpture in the middle of the home.

A double-sided fireplace does two jobs. It divides rooms without walling them off, and it lets you enjoy the fire from either side.

The helical staircase is the kind of detail you rarely see outside a custom build. Its curved form draws your eye upward and makes the entry feel grand.

Features like these are why people tour Parade homes. They show you design ideas you can bring to your own build, even at a smaller scale.

Gourmet Kitchen and Entertaining Space

The kitchen is built for hosting, with a gourmet layout that flows into the main entertaining space so the cook stays part of the conversation.

In a home this size, the kitchen is the hub. The Grandview Tudor connects its gourmet kitchen directly to the gathering areas, which is exactly what most buyers ask for today.

If you entertain often, pay attention to how the space flows in the video. Look at where guests would stand, where food gets staged, and how easy it is to move toward the backyard and pool.

Open, connected layouts like this work well for large families, holiday crowds, and unit get-togethers if you're a military family who likes to host.

The Primary Suite and Two-Story Closet

The primary suite's headline feature is a two-story closet, giving you far more storage and display space than a standard walk-in.

A two-story primary closet is a true showpiece. It turns storage into something closer to a private boutique.

For most buyers, the takeaway isn't that you need two stories of closet. It's that a custom build lets you put square footage where your life actually needs it.

Maybe that's a giant closet. Maybe it's a bigger mudroom or a home office. When you build, you decide.

Spa Amenities and the Soaker Tub

The primary bath leans into spa living with a deep soaker tub and resort-style finishes designed for relaxing at the end of a long day.

The soaker tub anchors the primary bath. Paired with the home's other wellness spaces, it makes this house feel like a retreat.

Spa-style bathrooms are one of the most requested upgrades in Northern Utah custom homes. After a day on the slopes at Snowbasin or a long shift on base, a deep tub earns its keep.

Indoor Gym, Sauna, and Climbing Wall

The family gym includes an indoor sauna and indoor climbing walls, so you can work out, recover, and keep the kids active without leaving home.

This is where the Grandview Tudor really separates itself. A dedicated family gym with a sauna and climbing walls is rare, even among luxury new builds.

It's practical, too. Northern Utah winters are real, and an indoor space to burn off energy helps on snowy days.

• Gym: room for daily training without a membership.
• Sauna: recovery and relaxation year-round.
• Climbing walls: a fun, active feature for kids and adults.

For service members who need to stay fit for duty, a home gym can be a genuine quality-of-life upgrade.

The Resort-Inspired Pool and Backyard

The backyard centers on a resort-inspired in-ground pool, turning the outdoor space into a summer destination for family and guests.

An in-ground pool is still uncommon in Weber County, which makes this backyard stand out right away.

Utah summers are hot and dry, so a pool gets plenty of use from late spring into early fall. Combined with the indoor gym and sauna, this home covers wellness in every season.

If a pool is on your must-have list, know that they're limited on the resale market. Building one into a custom plan or finding the right existing home takes patience. You can browse live MLS listings to see what's available now.

What It's Like to Live in Pleasant View, Utah

Pleasant View is a quiet Weber County city at the base of the mountains, with Weber County School District schools and easy access to both Hill AFB and Snowbasin.

Pleasant View sits in the northern part of Weber County. It's known for mountain views, a slower pace, and room for larger homes like this one.

Location is a big part of the appeal. From this home, it's about 22 minutes to Hill AFB and 39 minutes to Snowbasin. That's a rare combo of reasonable commute and real outdoor access.

Homes here are served by the Weber County School District. Always confirm school boundaries for a specific address before you buy or build.

Relocating to Utah and Building a Custom Home on PCS Orders

Building on PCS orders is possible, but you need to match the build timeline to your report date, plan interim housing, and line up financing like a VA loan early.

Custom homes take time. If you're PCSing to Hill AFB, your report date drives everything. Many families rent or buy an existing home first, then build once they know the area.

Key steps to plan for:

1. Check your timeline. Compare your report date with the builder's realistic schedule.
2. Plan interim housing. Short-term rentals or base housing can bridge the gap.
3. Get pre-approved early. Know your budget before you pick a lot or plan.
4. Ask about rate buydowns. Builders sometimes offer incentives that lower your interest rate.

Our PCS relocation guide for Hill AFB walks through each step. You can also check base info on the official Hill Air Force Base website.

Commute Times From Pleasant View to Hill AFB, Ogden, and Snowbasin

The Grandview Tudor sits about 22 minutes from Hill AFB and 39 minutes from Snowbasin. Downtown Ogden is usually 15 minutes or less, so Pleasant View works well for both base commuters and weekend skiers.

A big house only works if the daily drive works. From this part of Pleasant View, the trip to Hill AFB is about 22 minutes in normal traffic. Most people take Highway 89 south or hop on I-15, and enter through the main gates on the west side of base.

Drive times shift with the season and the hour. Plan a few extra minutes for early-morning shift changes at the gates and for winter storms coming off Ben Lomond Peak.

For military families, that 22-minute commute is a sweet spot. You get a quieter, north-end neighborhood without the long haul some Box Elder County buyers face. Our PCS relocation guide for Hill AFB breaks down gate locations and commute tips, and you can check base updates on the official Hill AFB website.

Schools and Neighborhood Feel Near the Grandview Tudor

Pleasant View is served by the Weber County School District, with students typically attending Weber High School. Always confirm boundaries by address, since attendance zones can change as new subdivisions are built.

The Grandview Tudor falls inside the Weber County School District. Most Pleasant View homes feed into Weber High School, which sits right in town. Elementary and junior high assignments depend on your exact street, so check the district's boundary lookup before you write an offer.

Beyond schools, the neighborhood feel is a big draw. Pleasant View sits at the base of Ben Lomond, so many lots have mountain views and quick access to trailheads. Streets tend to be quieter than in busier south-end cities.

• Bench trails for hiking and mountain biking close to home
• Newer subdivisions with larger lots than older Ogden neighborhoods
• North Ogden shopping and dining just a few minutes away

If you want to compare nearby options, look at our Pleasant View community page and the wider Weber County guide. Neighbors like North Ogden and Farr West offer a similar feel at a range of price points.

What It Costs to Own a Pool, Sauna, and Home Gym in Utah

Expect yearly costs for opening and closing the pool, chemicals, heating, and higher power bills for the sauna. In Northern Utah, outdoor pools usually run late May through September, so budget for seasonal care.

The in-ground pool, indoor sauna, and climbing walls are the showstoppers in this home. They also come with ongoing costs. Knowing them up front helps you decide which features matter most when you build or buy.

Utah winters are cold, so an outdoor pool here is a seasonal amenity. Most owners open in late spring and winterize in early fall. Here is what to plan for:

• Opening and winterizing: done by a pool pro each year to protect lines from freezing
• Chemicals and cleaning: weekly care during swim season
• Heating: a heater or solar cover stretches the season into fall
• Sauna power use: modest, but it adds up if you use it daily
• Insurance: pools can raise premiums, and some insurers ask for fencing or a safety cover

The home gym is the easiest feature to own. Climbing walls just need periodic checks on holds and padding. If you love these features, the costs are worth it. If you would rarely use them, a home without them may give you more value per dollar.

New Build vs. Resale: Which Makes More Sense in Pleasant View?

A new build like the Grandview Tudor gives you modern layouts, energy efficiency, and warranties. Resale homes often sit on established lots with mature trees and can close faster, which helps buyers on tight PCS timelines.

The Grandview Tudor is a Parade of Homes showcase, so it shows what local builders can do today. But new builds are only one path. Many buyers weigh them against resale homes in the same area.

A new build fits best if you have time and want features like a pool, sauna, or two-story closet built your way. A resale home fits best if your report date is fixed and you need keys fast.

Who a Home Like the Grandview Tudor Fits Best

This 6,489-square-foot, 5-bed, 5-bath home with a 4-car garage fits large or active families, multigenerational households, and buyers who host often and want resort-style amenities without leaving home.

At 6,489 square feet with 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and a 4-car garage, this is a lot of house. That size makes sense for some buyers and is too much for others. Here is who tends to love a home like this.

• Big, active families: the gym, climbing walls, and pool keep kids busy year-round
• Multigenerational households: five bedrooms and five baths give grandparents or adult kids real privacy
• Hosts and entertainers: the open kitchen and backyard pool make gatherings easy
• Outdoor lovers: 39 minutes to Snowbasin and close to bench trails
• Gear-heavy households: the 4-car garage fits trucks, toys, and ski racks

On the flip side, smaller households may find the upkeep and utility costs more than they need. Military families on a shorter tour should also think about resale and rental demand for a home this size.

VA Loan Benefits and Builder Rate Buydowns

VA loans can let eligible buyers purchase with no down payment and no private mortgage insurance, while builder rate buydowns can lower your payment on new construction.

According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, VA-backed home loans often come with better terms, including no down payment for many eligible borrowers and no private mortgage insurance.

On new construction, builder rate buydowns are another tool. The builder pays to reduce your rate, either temporarily or for the life of the loan, which can make a big monthly difference.

Not every builder or loan type works the same way. Talk with a VA-savvy lender and your agent before you sign a building contract so you know which incentives you can actually use.
