Welcome to the Baldwin House, a historic gem on the National Register of Historic Places, perfectly nestled near downtown Salt Lake City and the University of Utah. This stunning two-story Victorian radiates timeless charm, with beautiful, unpainted woodwork throughout and original features like a stone arch window and exquisite stained glass that highlight its historic character. The stunning Queen Anne porch and balcony offer captivating views of downtown skyline and the Capitol, blending city living with historic elegance. Inside, the home is bathed in natural light from tall windows, with high ceilings enhancing the sense of space. The flexible floor plan includes multiple bedroom layout options, with 3+ bedrooms on the second level and potential for a main floor bedroom. A finished 3rd level offers additional versatility, perfect as a rec room or guest suite, complete with a charming three-quarter bath. Additionally, a thoughtfully added green room, currently used as a game room, could also serve as a perfect mudroom. This meticulously restored and maintained home has had only a handful of owners over its nearly 150-year history. Each owner has left their unique mark, not only with their thoughtful renovations but also with names and years etched into wood preserved in the basement-a testament to the home's storied past. Step outside to a private, serene yard, ideal for relaxation or entertaining. Alley access to a 1 car garage with extra storage, and an EV charging outlet, plus an additional off street parking spot. The property also offers walkability to nearby restaurants, coffee shops, University of Utah sporting events, museums, Pioneer Theatre, and amazing access to the trax line. The Baldwin House is not just a home; it's a piece of Salt Lake City's living history.
