Perched just far enough above the city's quiet hum, this home offers a front-row seat to the sky. Imagine evenings on the porch, watching airplanes lift and land like birds against a backdrop of sunset: burnt orange fading to violet as the day exhales deeply. The views here stretch like a dream: north to the University of Utah, south toward East Canyon, and west until your gaze is swallowed by watery horizon. It's the kind of panorama that reminds you how big and beautiful life can be-how beautiful sitting and watching can be. Lovingly reimagined by Sausage Construction, one of Utah's finest custom builders, this home was tailored with comfortable living in mind. My clients dreamed up a place that could be both graceful and grounded, aesthetically appealing and accessible. A custom office platform was added on the lower level, perfectly positioned to catch the sweep of the valley. A ramp curves its way around the house, welcoming everyone-on wheels, on foot, or with boxes in tow-up to the main floor with ease. The details here delight: striking metal and concrete work at the entrance to a kitchen designed for flow and flavor. Purposeful spaces make living here feel effortless. Every corner holds a moment of thoughtful design. For those who love the outdoors, this location is spot on. This home sits directly below one of the best stretches of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail, a paradise for morning jogs, golden-hour strolls, and spontaneous adventures. Additionally, its easy freeway access makes exploring the rest of the state incredibly convenient. With downtown minutes away and Park City just up the road, you easily get the best of both worlds. This home has given my clients a whole lot of perspective over the years. It's been a lookout.  An easy retreat. A love letter to taking a moment, and taking the long view.
