Description
Exquisite 1896 Lower Avenues Masterpiece Completely Reimagined in 2025. Step into one of Salt Lake City's most extraordinary homes, where timeless 19th-century Victorian charm meets modern luxury in this completely reimagined 4-bed, 2-bath showpiece. Painstakingly restored over 2.5 years by a dedicated husband-and-wife team in collaboration with top local contractors and artisans, this 2, 466 sq ft architectural gem sits in the heart of the historic Lower Avenues-just steps from Ellerbeck Mansion, serene Kletting Park, and A Street's iconic Capitol views. Walk to City Creek in 15 minutes, the Entertainment District in 20, or simply stroll the block for brunch, green space, and the best sunsets in the city. Once home to C.D. Schetler-the first classical guitarist in the National Symphony-this house carries a legacy of artistry and cultural heritage. Schetler not only built homes on this street, but lived here with his wife, leaving behind a creative spirit that lives on through multiple framed original artworks from their time together, still displayed within the home. Inside, you're welcomed by a timeless entryway and parlor-currently styled as a study, but easily convertible to an additional bedroom. A rare and spectacular collection of period-correct chandeliers-many sourced from early 1900s Salt Lake City landmarks-graces each room, lending historic elegance to every space. Every corner of the home has been reimagined with care and intention: exposed brick accents, thoughtful wallpaper, and premium fixtures from Rejuvenation and Buster + Punch create a seamless blend of old-world character and modern refinement. The chef's kitchen features an oversized island with seating for four, brand-new high-end appliances, and a beautifully converted walk-in pantry. The primary bedroom is flooded with light, outfitted with sleek modular closets, and offers picturesque views of the Avenues. The primary bathroom showcases dual showers and handhelds, custom marble sinks, marble tile work throughout, waterproofed drywall, and thoughtfully integrated built-ins. A re-engineered staircase, complete with a custom banister and handrail handcrafted by artisans behind some of Utah's most sacred sites, ties the home's old and new elements together. A newly built transom was added to the hallway to elevate the flow of natural light and architectural continuity. Upstairs, the original master suite has been reconfigured into a grand open space with a walk-in closet, cozy reading nook, and office area-though it can easily be redesigned to suit the next owner's needs. Across the hall, a cozy bedroom with ample storage opens to a charming private balcony-perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets. A new extension in the attic crowns the home, offering a stunning theatre room, creative studio, or inspiring home office. The upstairs bathroom was also redone down to the studs, with waterproofed drywall, a quartz clawfoot tub, and custom built-ins. Out back, the yard has been transformed into an entertainer's dream with seating for a dozen or more guests-ideal for al fresco dinners, quiet evenings, or large gatherings. Out front, a lush, hand-curated garden of perennial plants and manicured grass offers a storybook welcome, lovingly planted and maintained by the home's previous owners. This is more than a home-it's a legacy property, brought back to life with passion, precision, and deep respect for its history and soul. Truly one of the most distinguished homes in the state. Conveniently located within 15 minutes to Salt Lake City International Airport and 30 minutes to world-class skiing in Big or Little Cottonwood Canyon.Show Description
