Nestled against the mountains, this perfect East Bench location is the best of both worlds: a nature sanctuary right near the heart of the city. As you walk in, the open floor plan greets you with a stunning view through floor-to-ceiling windows as you look out to evergreens and Mount Wire. The view from the oversized back deck is stunning. You’ll see the gorgeous sunset hit Mount Wire to the north as you look down to the glimmering Great Salt Lake below in the valley. The Bonneville shoreline trail and Donner Park are both within walking distance and there are world-class road biking and mountain biking trails right at your doorstep at the mouth of Emigration Canyon. This is one of the most coveted neighborhoods in Salt Lake for a reason. Close to nature, surrounded by beautiful homes, friendly neighbors, and on a quiet street, yet still so close to the city, it just doesn’t get better. You’re only 5 minutes from the University of Utah, 15 minutes from downtown Salt Lake and the airport, right near Hogle Zoo, shopping, excellent schools, and the Bonneville golf course. The home is ready to move in, with comprehensive updates and mid-century modern touches that include a completely updated cooker’s kitchen with sleek modern lines. It features complete wrap-around floor to ceiling windows on both levels and a terrazzo fireplace. The kitchen also features custom-built modern cabinets and a tucked away nook for a computer and tv. The natural light in this home is breath taking. The complete daylight walkout basement flows into a large beautifully landscaped back yard. Every room downstairs has large windows giving it lots of daylight. The yard is completely landscaped including raspberry bushes, lilac bushes, lots of mature trees and plenty of space for a garden. It is fully fenced with space for kids to play and explore. You’re only a short car-ride from Park City, Snowbird, Alta, and many other ski resorts. There is also a private hot tub tucked away in the back yard. The home is set up for Google Fiber with 8GB data speeds which pairs perfectly with the beautiful office featuring large windows and a library. This home is perfect for family life, including an oversized 2 car garage with plenty of space for bikes and storage, and including an electrical line already run for charging electric vehicles.
