Welcome to one of the most iconic and coveted residences in Salt Lake City's historic Avenues district. Nestled on a spacious corner lot shaded by mature trees, this quintessential Victorian masterpiece is one of the rare homes proudly listed on the National Historic Registry; a true collectible that embodies timeless craftsmanship and soul. From the moment you arrive, it's clear this home is unlike any other. Offering something nearly impossible to find in The Avenues, you'll enjoy the luxury of a private driveway, garage, and a serene backyard with a walled courtyard; a private retreat in the city. Step inside and experience a perfect blend of preserved historic charm and thoughtful updates. The expansive layout offers sight-lines from the welcoming front parlor all the way to the heart of the home. Original hardwood floors, intricate woodwork, stained glass windows, antique doorknobs, and period light fixtures honor the home's late 1800s roots. Among its most breathtaking features are the original fireplaces, which have stood 133 years of design trends with grace. Their exquisite, intricate woodwork and iron details speak to the enduring quality of this home; crafted to last for many lifespans and to be cherished for generations. Complementing the warmth and character are eight stunning stained glass windows, casting jewel-toned hues throughout the home and adding a vibrant touch of artistry to the abundant natural light. It's like living inside a poem. The updated kitchen features rich wood cabinetry, a luxury gas range, and ample space for entertaining. With 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a versatile rear addition that lends itself to a studio, sunroom, or guest suite, the home offers flexibility for modern living. A standout den with original wood paneling conceals a Murphy bed, transforming it effortlessly into an additional bedroom or a private studio. Two elegant covered porches invite you to relax with coffee or cocktails, surrounded by architectural history and the energy of one of Salt Lake's most beloved neighborhoods. Located within walking distance to fine dining, boutique shops, arts, theaters, the Salt Lake Capitol Building, City Creek Center and the University of Utah, it's no wonder The Avenues is considered one of Salt Lake's most prestigious places to live.
