With its gorgeous historic homes, mild traffic, and close proximity to great local spots like Cucina, Metric Yoga, Kura Door, and the new Publik (1), 2nd might just be our 1st pick for fave street in the lower Aves. Plus, with this particular casa, it's all here: a beautiful (and original) front door, rich hardwood floors, an antique fireplace and mantle, dramatic stairway with wood railing and balusters (ideal for making grand entrances), and crazy-charming stained glass. But an antiquated timepiece this spot is not. With an open living/dining area adjacent to the (spacious) kitchen, and a few grown-up sized bedrooms upstairs (including a stellar main suite), the layout of this place makes total sense for 21st century fams.

The Avenues

As Salt Lake’s first actual neighborhood, the Aves is packed with as much history as an Antiques Roadshow marathon. Streets A through U feature homes from Victorians to remodels and been-fixed-uppers, and the equal parts spooky and captivating Salt Lake City Cemetery rests eternally on 2nd.

Paul Svendsen

Paul Svendsen has been a manager of congressional campaigns, a practitioner of law, and a renovator of more than his fair share of homes. As such, he's received our COLLECTIVE stamp of approval as a certified jack of all trades, but it's his unwavering love for all things real estate that plays so fondly on our heartstrings. Over the last decade, Paul has managed more than $20 million in architecture and construction projects. It comes as no surprise, then, that he's got a weak spot for old houses (he’s a member of the SLC Historic Landmarks Commission) and big-time fixer-uppers, and he's had a hand in the resuscitation of several dilapidated buildings. He’s just as comfortable, however, with condos, town homes, and new construction, and he does a fair share of work with investors and commercial real estate. Summed up simply, no matter the style of real estate services you seek, Paul’s wealth of experience and easy-going style are sure to fit the bill.
