Property Details

Description

Exceptional Cottonwood Heights location with a private ADU, solar-powered savings and extraordinary access to Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons. This beautifully established home offers a rare combination of comfortable living, additional income potential and one of the Salt Lake Valley's most desirable locations for enjoying the outdoors. A major advantage is the separate basement ADU, complete with its own entrance, kitchen, bedroom and generous living/flex space. The ADU offers approximately $1,700 per month in long-term rental income, providing an unusual opportunity to offset the cost of homeownership while maintaining privacy between the two living spaces. Optional :(with potential for higher income through appropriately structured furnished rentals of 30 days or more.) The home also offers significant energy advantages. Its solar system has brought the current electric bill to approximately $21 per month, and the recently updated roof incorporates additional energy-saving features. Together, these improvements provide both meaningful ongoing savings and substantial recent investment in the home's efficiency and durability. Inside, vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an inviting sense of space, with formal living and dining areas, a spacious kitchen and comfortable family room. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are located upstairs, including a generous primary suite. The fully finished walkout basement provides additional living space and direct access to the beautifully landscaped .28-acre lot, where mature trees, fruit trees, garden boxes, a playground and areas for gathering create a private outdoor setting. Recent improvements include the updated roof with energy-saving features, a high-efficiency upstairs furnace and A/C (2024), and new garage door motors (2025). A three-car garage provides ample parking and storage. Set in a quiet Cottonwood Heights neighborhood, the home is exceptionally close to Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons, with easy access to skiing, hiking and biking, while remaining convenient to shopping, dining, parks and the freeway. For buyers looking for more than simply a house, this property offers something increasingly difficult to find: an established home in an exceptional location, a separate income-producing living space, and unusually low energy costs.
