Katherine Heigl is ready to hand over the keys to her Oakley mountain hideout, quietly listing the roughly 8,000-square-foot stone-and-wood estate for $10.6 million. The retreat sits on about 25 acres in the rural pocket outside Park City, where she and husband Josh Kelley have raised their three children. The couple says they are scaling down into a nearby Victorian farmhouse they recently purchased and started restoring, rather than leaving the area altogether.
Listing Details And Local Reporting
The move first surfaced in national business coverage, then got the local treatment from Deseret News. The outlet notes that Heigl bought the 25-acre parcel in 2007 and moved into the completed home full-time in 2012. Deseret News points readers to the public listing and zeroes in on features such as the five bedrooms, a redone kitchen, and broad terraces, as well as Heigl's own comments about how emotionally tough it is to part with the property.
Inside The House And The Listing
The Engel & Völkers Park City listing, handled by agent Paul Benson, is presented on Realtor.com as an 8,000-square-foot, multi-level mountain retreat with generous terraces, a heated pool, a dedicated media room, and a detached studio that was craned onto the land. According to Realtor.com, the recently remodeled kitchen is organized around a La Cornue range and custom cabinetry, and Benson tells the site the sellers hope to find a buyer who values privacy and a sense of legacy more than a flashier resort address. Those same qualities are held up as the reason the place worked as a long-term family hub instead of a simple weekend escape.
Why They’re Moving, Not Leaving
Architectural Digest reports that the couple is shifting to a nearby blue Victorian farmhouse they bought as a restoration project and have been steadily renovating. Architectural Digest also notes that the Oakley estate has been tailored over the years to suit Heigl's creative life, including a separate art studio, along with a restored listening shack for Josh Kelley. In a video highlighted by local outlets, Heigl said the farmhouse "had such a beautiful spirit" but added that it will "need a lot of love and work," a tradeoff she seems willing to make.
Oakley’s Appeal For Privacy-Minded Buyers
Oakley sits about 15 miles from Park City's resort corridor, which Deseret News notes makes it a quieter, more land-rich alternative for people who want mountain access without a high-profile resort address. That setup has helped keep demand steady for bigger parcels and legacy-style holdings, a trend local coverage has followed closely. For a broader look at how luxury development is reshaping Park City and the surrounding area, TownLift offers additional context.
What Comes Next
The Engel & Völkers listing remains active and is expected to attract buyers who prize privacy, acreage, and family-scale outdoor space. Showings will be coordinated through the brokerage, and Realtor.com carries the public listing details and Benson's contact information. While the mountain estate waits for its next owner, the Kelleys are focused on finishing the Victorian farmhouse renovation and settling into their new chapter nearby.
