480 E Wendell Dr South Salt Lake, UT 84115

Located in South Salt Lake on the cusp of Millcreek, this adorable home has a bit of everything for anyone seeking an affordable starter with a LOT of potential. With features that entail a few different property styles-mid-century in era with some cottage, bungalow, and rambler details thrown in for good measure-what you'll find in no short supply here is comfort and possibility. There's an endearing 50s vibe here: a whimsical roofline feels reminiscent of a gingerbread house, and the huge lot size is highly enviable. A big front yard means the property is set back from the road, creating plenty of privacy, and a roomy two-car garage lends itself to just the right amount of storage for both your vehicles and your *stuff*. Inside, the spaces feel bright, open, and seamlessly connected to one another. A stone fireplace offers warmth in the colder months, and the kitchen (which could use updating, but is in fantastic condition) is centrally located in the home, all but guaranteeing successful gatherings. Bedrooms are ripe with possibilities, and an en-suite half-bath could easily be turned into a full bath with a little work (plus, the windows and furnace in the home are on the newer side). A sizable porch off the back of the property walks out to a large back yard where you have the opportunity to create your dream outdoor space. A small shed in the center of the lawn offers up the perfect covered sitting area (we're envisioning string lights and a dining table or cozy furniture), and a much larger shed in the back means you'll have room for every last yard tool and mower (or you can create your own art studio, growing shed, office, etc.). Plus, a small fenced area makes the perfect spot for a dedicated garden. All told, this lovely home has been well-loved and -taken care of...and it's time for the next owners to do the same.
