This one's been well-loved…

This property on Michelle Way was thoughtfully built in 1972 by its original owner, a brilliant young engineer who hoped to create a well-designed and beautiful space for his growing family (who have owned it ever since). The neighborhood is as quiet today as it was then, and owners here can take in the stunning mountain views from the half-acre backyard, so it feels a bit like a retreat here. With three spacious bedrooms on the main level, as well as three on the lower level, there’s plenty of room for growth, play, or a bit of stretching out and relaxing. The cozy basement has a brick hearth that lends itself nicely to game nights (Parcheesi, anyone?), space to lounge, or some good progress on those projects you started. Upstairs, an open flow between the kitchen and family room features vaulted ceilings, large windows, and gorgeous ceiling beams. This is a home wherein you’ll find plenty of vintage charm, should you wish to keep it, but also a good set of bones that will make for the perfect renovation when the time comes. An extra-deep, extra-tall garage translates to plenty of room for your gear, which works out nicely, since the proximity to Little Cottonwood Canyon can’t be beat. Add to all this, unlimited options for shopping and dining just a stone’s throw with some easy-breezy freeway access to boot, and we’d say this ideally situated spot is ready for all the creative vision you can bring!
