Iconic Krekow Jennings Timber Frame Estate Showcases Luxury Equestrian Living at $9.9 Million
For the first time, the legendary equestrian property at 5051 US Highway 12 in Elma, Washington, has arrived on the open market with an asking price of $9.9 million. Set across 53.63 acres, this custom-built estate is more than just a residence—it is a world-class equestrian facility that has produced numerous U.S. National Arabian Champions and earned its reputation as one of the most prestigious training grounds in the Northwest. Built in 2011 by Krekow Jennings, and thoughtfully remodeled in 2012, the property embodies the very best of Washington Real Estate, blending craftsmanship, luxury, and purpose.
Architectural Grandeur and Distinctive Interiors
The primary residence spans an impressive 12,606 square feet, showcasing soaring 43-foot arched ceilings in the Great Room and a chef’s kitchen fitted with Clive Christian cabinetry and a French Lacanche range. “Every detail of this estate reflects the homeowner’s passion for design and quality,” listing agent Brad Vancour of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty told Luxury Houses Magazine. “From the handcrafted timber framing to the imported finishes, the property was envisioned as a timeless masterpiece.”
Beyond the main residence, the estate features a 3,900-square-foot secondary home and a two-bedroom apartment for caretakers or staff, ensuring comfort and functionality for multigenerational living or hosting extended guests. Amenities such as a wine cellar, wet bar, elevator, spa, and multiple fireplaces reflect a commitment to refined luxury.

Equestrian Facilities of Global Standard
What sets 5051 US Highway 12 apart in the competitive landscape of Elma Real Estate is its unparalleled equestrian infrastructure. The property includes nine barns and two arenas—indoor and outdoor—totaling nearly 38,000 square feet of covered space, with capacity for 70 horse stalls. Level, fenced pastures spread across the estate, creating an environment where horses can thrive.
“The estate is not only a home; it’s a legacy in motion,” Vancour explained in an interview with Luxury Houses. “Few properties in Washington can match its record of producing champion horses while offering such extensive and modern equestrian amenities.”
This reputation has made the estate a cornerstone of equestrian culture in the Pacific Northwest, attracting breeders, trainers, and competitors from across the nation.
