“I don’t think he’ll be afraid of heights,” says Glendon Good, holding his 9-month-old son in his arms as a gondola lifts them to the top of a sheer cliff. The ride—3 minutes and 14 seconds at slightly more than 45 degrees—takes them to the house Good shares with his wife, Milenka Bezic, and Jackson, who is their first child together.
For Bezic, living more than 200 feet above the nearest road wasn’t exactly a choice. Good, age 60, was already working on the cliff top dwelling outside Sedona, Arizona, when the couple met at a neighbor’s garden party in 2019 and, he says, “hit it off right away.” (Bezic, 44, grew up in Argentina and was visiting an aunt in Arizona at the time.) They married in 2021, when, Good says, the house was about 75% finished.
