About This Home

Charming 3-bed, 1-bath home in Salt Lake's Ballpark neighborhood. This restored 1920s gem blends original character with modern functionality. Features include a cozy fireplace, charming built-ins, and original hardwood floors. No knob and tube in this beauty, all electrical has been rewired and plumbing has been tested for lead. The bright kitchen has been restored with antique hardware, butcher-block countertops, and easy access to upstairs laundry. Outside, enjoy a spacious yard with a charming tool shed, large detached and insulated garage, and plenty of room for gardening. Semi-finished basement has a fully finished bedroom and potential for a second bathroom. Location provides convenient access to parks and local eats, as well as an easy commute to the airport, Sugarhouse, downtown Salt Lake, and public transit. Pleasant neighbors, easy dog walking, and a cafe just feet away add to the home's appeal.
