This is Salt Lake City at it's best
A space where stunning views, peaceful gardens, and city amenities are around the corner for you to connect with.
Built in 1928, its wood floors, soft arches, and natural light invites you in. It’s charming. Vaulted ceilings give you breathing room and cozy nooks entice you to get comfortable, pick up a book (or your computer) and do what you need to do.
From the kitchen, look out into the beautiful landscape sculpted with passion and love by the owner - a horticulturist who has designed with the preciousness of water in mind and climate resilient plants.
With a large walk-in closet and flex space, the master bedroom supports your creativity and keeps your life organized and in rhythm.
The large detached garage can easily house all your gear and tools. Turn it into a maker-space depending on your needs.
Gather here.
Take advantage of a maturing edible landscape to fill your pantry and fridge with delectables from the garden. Enjoy front porch living and deepen your ties with your community. A large covered back patio is ripe for your outdoor living touch.
Circle around the firepit in all four seasons. Let the spring scents, summer glow, fall leaves, and winter’s snow support your rhythms.
In our fast-paced, ever changing world, having a home that supports your health, wellness, and symbiosis with life, you’ll be able to return to base line in no time.
