The founder of pizza chain Papa John's just made history in Utah by putting his ski resort getaway on the market for 17.99million - the most expensive condo ever listed in the state.

Papa John's CEO John Schnatter bought the 6,000-square-foot penthouse unit in 2008 as an investment, and is also listing a slightly smaller 5,000-square-foot unit in the building for 12.5million

Schnatter told the Deseret News that he plans to keep whichever unit doesn't sell first, so the purchaser can look forward to having the pizza magnate as a neighbor.

Making history: The founder of Papa John's is selling a condo in Deer Valley, Utah for $17.99million - the most expensive condo ever listed in the state Pizza magnate: John Schnatter is the founder and CEO of pizza chain Papa John's

'I have traveled all around the world and there is no place else like the St. Regis Deer Valley,' Schnatter said. 'Most places you wake up and plan where you are going to eat next and here you plan your next adventure.'

After purchasing the two units in 2008, Schanatter focused his efforts on furnishing the the larger unit.

The expansive ski enclave comes with five bedrooms and bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen with Wolf appliances, and a separate butler's kitchen for entertaining.

Other perks include a private elevator with access to a ski prep room, a wine room, a private office with wet bar in the master suite, and a media game room.

There's also panoramic views of Deer Valley and Park City which are probably best seen from the 2,000-square-foot deck.

'The living space on the deck is really incredible,' said Brigid Flint, listing agent for Summit Sotheby’s International Realty. 'You’re on the top floor with the most incredible views in all of Deer Valley.'

rest and relaxation: The outdoor living space comes with an enclosed hot tub and fireplace to unwind after a long day on the slopes Room with a view: The top floor of the resort offers panoramic views of Deer Valley and Park City The vault: A wine room any connoisseur would be proud of. And nothing goes better with pizza than wine Shooting pool: A billiards room is another of the condo's many features Living large: You can watch the Winter Olympics on this couch and laugh at all the Sochi problems from your luxury condo Targeted: Sotheby's is listing the condo and are marketing it at a wealthy foreign buyer High-end: Sotheby's recently marketed the condo at a luxury real estate conference in Monte Carlo

The deck also has a hot tub, barbeque and bar, with a fireplace and heaters to keep warm in the winter months.

Since the condo is a part of a larger resort, prospective owners can look forward to amenities like butler service, a full-service spa, on-site restaurant and being just steps from the Deer Hollow ski run.

The Sotheby's agent says it's 'very likely' the condo will sell to a foreign buyer. They recently marketed the unit at a luxury real estate conference in Monte Carlo and are targeting a pool of potential buyers in the Middle East.

'Obviously, there is a small pool of people that can afford a property at this price point,' Flint said.
