Perched high in Olympus Cove on Parkview Drive, one of the most picturesque and desirable streets in the Salt Lake Valley, this completely rebuilt postmodern home offers privacy, serenity, and sweeping views of the mountains and valley below. Set on a secluded .62 acre lot, the home is immaculate with clean architectural lines yet feels like a peaceful retreat, the kind of place where you naturally gravitate to the west facing formal living room window to enjoy the large open fireplace and two story bookshelf on a cold winter day.
The home was masterfully realized by Stagg Design, a nationally recognized design firm, with architectural design by the renowned Hebdon Studios. Together, they created a residence that is visually compelling yet exceptionally livable, blending postmodern architecture with warmth, comfort, and a natural flow from one space to the next. Vaulted ceilings, a floating staircase, and walls of glass flood the home with natural light while framing spectacular views in every direction.
The home was meticulously designed to maximize scenery from every window. The gourmet kitchen features double islands with seating for twelve, an exquisite marble slab backsplash with shelving, designer lighting, a 60 inch Wolf range with double ovens, full size Sub Zero refrigerator and freezer, and a custom built in china cabinet. A massive multi sliding door opens to a backyard entertaining area ideal for indoor outdoor living. The adjacent formal dining room with sliding glass doors flows seamlessly to the front patio, perfect for enjoying sunset views across the valley. The oversized butler’s pantry is a chef’s dream with steam and speed ovens, a warming drawer, second dishwasher, additional refrigerator, water bottle filling station, and pebble ice machine.
The formal living room showcases a dramatic two story bookcase and spiral staircase leading to a hidden book loft, while the solid slab fireplace makes it the perfect place to curl up with a good book. The luxurious owner’s suite feels like a personal retreat with custom millwork, a marble gas fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and expansive windows. The primary bathroom features an oversized double shower, freestanding tub, dual vanities including a makeup vanity, and a custom walk-in closet with integrated laundry.
Designed for entertaining, the lower level includes a full second kitchen, movie theater with bar seating, game and lounge areas, a playful lofted playhouse, ample storage, and four bedrooms with above grade windows that flood the space with natural light. An upper level visually dramatic dance or yoga studio offers sweeping views reaching the Great Salt Lake, complemented by an elevated workout space that feels perched above the valley. A lock off attached accessory dwelling unit includes its own kitchen, dining area, family room, bedroom, and bath, making it ideal for guests to stay.
This exceptional location offers immediate access to Millcreek Canyon, Mount Olympus, and an extensive network of hiking and biking trails, all quite literally at your doorstep. At the same time, its central setting provides quick access to downtown Salt Lake City, Park City, world class ski resorts, and Salt Lake International Airport, making it one of the most uniquely balanced locations in the valley.
