Here is a home with all the charm of an experienced host, the cheerfulness of a sunny day, the compactness of a Pullman, and the lasting appeal of a lovely painting. These words were first written by Joyce Evans in the Deseret News in July of 1948, when this home was featured in the Salt Lake Parade of Homes, and her description still fits beautifully today.
Situated on a gentle slope with a rock wall and flat lawn this Georgian residence continues to carry a graceful spirit and a welcoming presence. A pillared veranda, white painted brick exterior with black shutters, ample windows, and a paneled recessed front door create a timeless and carefully composed facade.
Inside, there is an immediate sense of welcome. The living room remains comfortable and inviting, with built in bookcases, a generous bay window, and a warm hearth that has anchored gatherings across generations.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and white cabinetry, opening into a bright rear addition with abundant windows overlooking a beautifully landscaped yard with mature trees and room to enjoy outdoor living.
The garage accommodates four cars in a tandem layout, two wide with extended depth for two more vehicles. A concrete pad behind the garage and an additional storage shed provide room for outdoor gear, gardening tools, or recreation equipment.
This property has been preserved with care and appreciation for its history, character, and architectural charm by the current owners. The home lives comfortably on its lot with pleasant outlooks and an ideal location with quick routes to the nearby canyons for recreation, close to schools, Holladay and Millcreek town centers, convenient access downtown Salt Lake City, the University of utah, and to the airport.
