All of the distinctive hallmarks of a Victorian-era home are showcased in this lovely painted lady: solid construction, high ceilings, and warm natural light. It also has some welcome surprises for a home from this era: a detached two-car garage, plenty of storage, and even a primary suite with a walk-in closet. Situated on tree-lined Laird Avenue, just a few minutes walk from the bustling shops and diverse restaurants at Ninth and Ninth, this home has been lovingly cared for and updated throughout. The main level includes: a cozy living room (with a new gas fireplace that lights with the flip of switch), an inviting dining room, and a generous kitchen. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the main level. You'll find the primary suitealong with its own bathroom and laundryon the upper level. The upstairs sitting area will likely be a favorite spot for reading, relaxing, and watching the peaceful neighborhood below. An additional bedroom and an abundance of storage is available in the basement, with clever use of the shelf and crawl spaces. The front yard offers shade from mature trees, vegetable boxes, and a comfortable porch, all contained by the perfect wrought-iron gate. The backyard includes a flat grassy area and a spacious deck which can be accessed from the very practical mudroom at the back of the home. Centrally located near the University of Utah, downtown Salt Lake City, and Liberty Park. This move-in ready home is a beautiful example of classic architecture that suits our modern lifestyles.
