This lovely Dutch Colonial home is situated in the Gilmer Park The Gilmer Park Historic District, developed primarily between about 1909 and 1943. This significant residential neighborhood in Salt Lake City is conveniently located close to downtown, the airport and mountain recreation. The period of development, just after World War I, is reflected in the postwar construction boom and predominant use of Period Revival style architecture in this beautiful area. It is one of the first subdivisions in the city to deviate from the rectangular grid and follow the national trend toward more organic layouts. This home is a classic example with structured landscaping on the front deck looking west to the city with beautiful sunset and city light views and graceful, inviting landscaped entertainment areas in the rear of the home including a large, covered patio, easily accessed by side paths or the garden room off the dining and living rooms. The kitchen's new dishwasher, refrigerator and newer range make cooking a joy. The bay windows can be used for herbs and the kitchen nook is perfect for a cup of tea while waiting for guests. From the living room one can see the west views and watch the winter snows in front of the gas fireplace. Guests can use the re-done, beautifully tiled half bath. The upper level includes two bedrooms- one the length of the home overlooking the front of the home and the back garden. The second story wide plank hardwood floors were installed in the last few years. All the second-floor windows are brand new double pane, real wood windows designed like the original windows. The bath has been recently updated with a second-floor laundry around the corner. Storage is abundant throughout the home. A third large bedroom and three-quarter bath on the lower level, with a family room with wet bar, leaded glass fronted cabinets and closets create a space with lots of possibilities. The double-car garage with a convenient lower-level entrance is a rare feature in this area. The large garage contains automatic garage doors and automatic sprinkler controls. In the rear of the home is an as-is extra shop or storage room created from the original old, one car garage. All in all, if you want to be by the 9th and 9th district, ride your bike to the University of Utah or Westminster University, work downtown or at one of the four prominent medical centers, ski within 40 minutes of your home, exercise or swim at the Steiner Center or . . . I could go on... You cannot beat this beautiful home!
