About this home

This beautiful home on the hill offers some of the most impressive views in the Salt Lake Valley. Wake up every morning to sweeping panoramas that stretch across the entire valley and beyond. By day, enjoy the majestic mountains and vibrant valley, with the State Capitol clearly visible below. At night, the city transforms into a sparkling sea of twinkling lights that's truly mesmerizing. An incredible opportunity for anyone working downtown Salt Lake City, at the major hospitals, or at the University of Utah. Just 5 minutes from downtown, this home sits on a very private street where the only cars that usually drive by belong to neighbors. You're close to everything happening downtown, the University of Utah, and the hospitals - yet it feels wonderfully quiet and secluded. The location is especially ideal for doctors, lawyers, university professionals, and anyone who values both convenience and privacy. The property features a spacious 3-car attached garage plus a very large secondary double-deep garage with plenty of storage. These versatile spaces are perfect for a hobbyist, home gym, car enthusiast - or even converting into an ADU. With Salt Lake City's supportive regulations for garage conversions, this could be a fantastic opportunity to create additional living space or rental income. Inside, the chef's and entertainer's kitchen features beautiful walnut cabinetry and opens to a flexible living space with three separate eating areas: a large island, a formal dining room, and room for an informal dining area on the other side. The home currently has 3 bedrooms, with a wall removed between bedrooms 3 and 4 to create a dance studio that can easily be converted back to 4 bedrooms. The owners had planned an extensive remodel to better capture the home's incredible 270-degree views of the mountains and valley before deciding to move closer to their grandkids. They've now made the decision to part with this special property, giving the next owner the chance to finish it as-is or transform it into something even more magnificent. Don't miss this great opportunity to own a home with one of the best views on the hill. Call me for an appointment today. Buyer to verify all information.
