This jaw-dropping, custom home was created by architect Michael Upwall as a “modern interpretation of the early-20th-century Hollywood Ave bungalow.” The resulting structure is a stunner, and fits in seamlessly with its historic neighbors while remaining a one-of-a-kind marvel.
From the exposed structural beams and open rafter tails in the flared eaves to the custom Tansu-inspired bookcase and mitered stairway, there’s an attention to detail here that’s all too rare (and very appreciated by yours truly).
All window frames are solid Douglas fir, and the floors? Quarter-sawn, solid oak. Also worth noting are the Venetian plaster walls (with hand detailing) throughout and the custom-painted mural by Iconography, Inc.
The mass and design of the carport compliment the overall design of the home, and ensure there’ll be plenty of space for both storage and a vehicle or two.
The basement’s been set up to house a darkroom, but if photography’s not your gig, there’s a delightfully-detached (and plumbed!) studio out back that’s perfect for any painter, yogi, or bath aficionado.
Cozy, private, and impeccably designed, this home also happens to be perched in one of the most walkable ‘hoods in Sugar House (so, should you ever decide to leave, you’ll have a wealth of SLC staples at your disposal).
This is just the kind of space we love so well and live to sell. It’s unique, enchanting, and well-put-together,
