About This Home

On one of Salt Lake's most sought after streets, this extraordinary home is a masterclass in architecture, proportion, and design. Set back from the street and intentionally private, the property carries a quiet confidence. The approach is centered on symmetry and balance. A broad walkway leads to the double entry doors, while floor to ceiling glass spans the full length of the upper level. Above the stone walls below, a cantilevered veranda reinforces the home's strong horizontal lines. Inside, a gallery style hallway runs through the core of the home, terminating at a fully framed north facing wall of glass that draws the landscape directly into view. Originally designed by renowned architect Jim Christopher, the home already possessed remarkable architectural integrity. A meticulous renovation elevated the original structure while preserving its intent. The property was further expanded by Sparano + Mooney with a striking modern addition known as The Cube, completed in 2025 as part of the home's transformation. The Cube is a bold composition of glass and concrete that complements the original home. In 2025, it received one of only five residential design awards presented nationwide by the American Institute of Architects. Reflections from the pool move across the glass facade, while polished concrete floors, exposed concrete walls, floating stairs, and a dramatic Poliform library wall define the space. The architectural language extends throughout the outdoor spaces, including the pool, garden, and hot tub, which sits just above the roofline behind a concrete privacy wall to capture sweeping sunset and city views. From the herringbone floors and vintage hardware to the Italian cabinetry, every detail was carefully considered. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where original architecture, thoughtful renovation, and nationally recognized contemporary design come together in exceptional harmony.
