Single Family Home for Sale

For those of us who have been loving on mid-century homes and buildings here in Utah, finding one that still has it's soul, is an absolute real-estate godsend. Be still our 1959 hearts. The simple roofline and facade offer an easy horizontal plane for the magnitude of the mountain view above and at the back. Typical midcentury, taking the natural surroundings into account. Olympus Cove paired with a home featuring an original wood lid and paneling, vaulted ceilings, sky light, and well proportioned rooms, make this house a home worth growing in. Jen Hadfield, a fellow cityhomeCOLLECTIVE agent, shared these thoughts about this remarkable home: "Those partial to sprawling valley views will feel right at home here. Expansive picture windows frame the landscape like living art, while a front deck that spans the length of the home invites morning coffee rituals and sunset gatherings alike. Inside, the open kitchen flows seamlessly into the adjoining living space, where high beamed ceilings lend an airy ease to everyday living and effortless hosting. With summer on the horizon, guests can drift from the main living area straight into a backyard poised to burst with perennials-an ideal backdrop for long dinners and lingering conversations. And when the air turns crisp? The original wood stove fireplace becomes the undeniable centerpiece. Picture it now: a crackling fire, a cozy seat, and a glass of something delightful in hand. Beyond its vintage appeal, this home offers practical pleasures, too-a workshop for tinkering and creating, plus a dry sauna for unwinding after a day on the trails. And speaking of trails, you're just a dash from world-class skiing and hiking, with the best of Utah's outdoors practically at your doorstep. Whether you're the entertaining type, the outdoor adventurer, or the contented homebody, this Olympus Cove classic is ready to meet you exactly where you are." And for our posterity, let's all praise these preserved gems! Kudos to all of the homeowners who have loved on this place over time, and who did so gently and with nature, easy living and mountain majesty in mind!
