Full description

One of Federal Heights' most architecturally significant homes, this Spanish Colonial Revival-originally built in 1928 and known as the Nels G. Hall House-is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been carefully restored for modern living. Set on a tree-lined lot, the approach begins with a gated, radiant-heated driveway, framed by a hand-forged Spanish gate dating to the late 1800s-an incredible architectural element that now functions as a fully integrated electric gate, creating a secure, enclosed environment ideal for pets, kids, and everyday peace of mind. Beyond, a series of private outdoor spaces unfold, including a courtyard and layered terraces that create a true sense of arrival. Inside, hand-painted Moorish tiles, vaulted ceilings, and four fireplaces anchor the home's original character, while thoughtful updates-such as limestone surfaces and integrated systems-enhance everyday livability. A comprehensive renovation completed between 20032006 expanded and refined the home while maintaining its architectural integrity. The layout offers both inviting gathering spaces and quiet retreats across multiple levels, including a rare upper-level configuration with four bedrooms and three baths-an increasingly hard-to-find setup in this neighborhood. Equally rare for the area, the property offers garage space for three cars, including a newer detached two-car garage with a climbing wall, along with the original attached garage-heated and ideal for a ski or bike room, workshop, or additional storage. Surrounded by mature trees and set in one of Salt Lake City's most established neighborhoods, the property offers privacy with immediate access to the University, downtown, and nearby foothill trails. A rare opportunity to own a nationally recognized historic residence-already thoughtfully adapted for modern living.
