Built to entertain during the Roaring Twenties and passed from one artistic spirit to another, this bungalow shines with the radiance of over a century of good times. It’s a treasure trove of original craftsmanship, featuring stately gumwood trim, built-in cabinets with stained glass, and intricate Art Deco light fixtures. Over the years, the home’s colorful personality has been further enhanced with unique embellishments: a custom mosaic kitchen window sill and a glass bottle wall that links the main house to the garage-turned-studio. Outside, a hand-made iron fence covered in mature vines surrounds the yard.
In addition to the home’s distinct and lovable character, the property is situated in a premier spot for walkability and urban living: directly across the street from Liberty Park with 80 acres of green space, playgrounds, a public pool, and frequent cultural events; around the corner from the restaurants and shops along 900 South and the new Milk Block; connected to downtown and 9th and 9th via the 9-Line trail. This is a rare opportunity to own a solid, heritage home in a bustling neighborhood that perfectly balances historic charm with future promise.
KARLY NIELSEN
Karly Nielsen’s clients consistently praise her expertise, her keen negotiation skills, and, most of all, her indomitable positive attitude. With her contagious determination and genuine concern, you will be thankful to have her on your side. Karly shares your goals and commits to helping you succeed. Karly’s path in life naturally led her to a career in real estate. After earning a degree in Business Management, she worked and volunteered in the housing sector for many years. Moving her young family numerous times in the span of ten years made her a master in the art of moving. The Nielsen family navigated changes from Brooklyn to New Jersey, then cross-country back to her home state of California, before settling in Utah and renovating their current home in the Yalecrest Neighborhood. All of these experiences, coupled with her ability to connect with people from all walks of life, steered Karly toward getting her real estate license in 2015. Shortly after starting as an agent, she realized that she’d found her niche and she set out to start her own brokerage.
Karly’s credentials include: licensed broker in the state of Utah, one of the Salt Lake Board of Realtors Top 500 every year since 2017, Certified Negotiations Expert through the Salt Lake Board of Realtors, and extensive training in the Ninja Selling system. Her endless motivation to hone her skills comes from the lasting relationships she forms with her team and clients. When she’s not buying and selling homes you can find her volunteering, cooking, running, or making memories with her husband and four children.
