452 S 800 E Apartments

Beautiful, one bedroom apartment. Close to University of Utah (literally Trax and bus stop just around the corner.) ***************************************************************************************************************** Here’s your chance to live in a beautiful 1910 historic craftsman home with tons of charm and character: the Thomas B. Child home. Thomas B. Child was a very prominent figure in Salt Lake City, running a brick and stone masonry company. He is noted for working on many important buildings throughout the mountain west. He was also a bishop of the nearby 10th LDS ward and was noted as a kind caring man who helped many settlers get started in life. His is most famously the creator of the Gilgal Gardens. ***************************************************************************************************************** The home has been beautifully remodeled, and the historic apartment retains its original character and charm. You’ll not find another apartment like this. With its own separate entrance, you’ll walk along the side of the home and descend the stairs past the cobblestone walls to the pointed door detailed with custom swirled hinges. It’s like a cottage you may dream about finding in a fairy tale. ***************************************************************************************************************** Inside you will find a cozy living room with fireplace, antique lighting, a beautiful hand painted mural. The beautifully remodeled kitchen featuring a dishwasher, classic tile, antique chandelier suitable for a cozy table, undercabinet lighting and storage. Next, you’ll find a little hallway complete with magic mirror and more antique lighting, quaint little bathroom with full tub and shower, beautiful antique pedestal sink - black and white tile and accents complete the look. Around the corner is nice-sized bedroom with beautiful multi color antique lamp, closet and private stack laundry. All lights are on dimmers and work separately to create a charming mood. ***************************************************************************************************************** The apartment has lots of windows and allows for tons of light. It is a “garden level” which allows for more light. The paint colors are a lovely warm beige two toned paint throughout. This is a lovely apartment. It also features cold central air conditioning. ***************************************************************************************************************** The beautiful grounds are communal with the other apartments in the building, and features “the Nitch” - Thomas B. Childs his first “Masterwork” - a complicated philosophical reference to the trinity, Jesus, and men and women who create things - “some come to create...,” a beautiful brick fireplace and garden fountain, lights, antique roses, and a wonderful antique cherry plumb tree – as old as the house itself, that will be filled with beautiful plums for eating or to make jam or jelly late July/August. It’s so very special. ***************************************************************************************************************** Noted for its craftsman style and beautiful craftsmanship, the exterior has been remodeled to bring out all the amazing woodwork detail, including three tone patriotic red, white and blue paint. ***************************************************************************************************************** Who would want to live here? The apartment is perfect for someone who loves antiquity and wishes to live apart from the multiplex monstrosities being constructed in the city. Perfect for the student, visiting professor, or just someone who wants to enjoy the beautiful grounds and lifestyle. The building is close to downtown and everything that living here has to offer, but far enough East so as to be away from the some of the problems closer to downtown. ***************************************************************************************************************** $1495 monthly rent plus $1495 deposit. The apartment has separate fixed charges for gas ($40/month), electricity ($40/month) and water sewer garbage and some towards grounds care for $75/month. Wireless Internet is $45 monthly. Our tenant benefit package includes most of the stuff the other guys charge for, and we may even drop by with some fresh eggs from our family farm. ***************************************************************************************************************** About us- were a small, family “Mom and Pop” l@ndlords with a penchant for restoring antique buildings. Believe it or not – this antique building was in danger of being demolished to make way for another monstrosity apartment complex. We saved it! And by you renting it you are helping to preserve historic Salt Lake City. We really care for our tenants. No nameless, faceless apartment manager here – we’re the folks your friends tell you to find to rent from. Thanks for looking!
