We were told by the last family that it was originally built by a contractor for himself and was the showplace of the neighborhood. It has been a happy, welcoming spot on this street throughout its history. The gardens and yard provide a magical escape from the city and a picturesque place to entertain without leaving home. The garage is a dream that has given us a wonderful place to showcase our collections and work on our hobbies. We have enjoyed all the advantages of Salt Lake City and have made lifelong friends of neighbors. We have poured our hearts and souls into making 434 a source of pride. This home has not been flipped, it's been loved.
