The story
About this home.
About this home
Nearly a century ago, this extraordinary French Chteau was sited in one of Salt Lake City's most serene and beautiful settings. Located in the Gilmer Park Historic District (National Register of Historic Places), the estate enjoys a rare park-like setting along Red Butte Creek, just three miles from downtown. Tucked into a wooded ravine between Harvard and Yale Avenues, it offers exceptional privacy and natural beauty. Built in 1926 as a true trophy home, the residence was designed as an architectural masterpiece seamlessly integrated into its surroundings. The private grounds feature mature trees, manicured lawns, ponds, stone bridges, and abundant wildlife-evoking the timeless charm of Monet's gardens. A meticulous restoration in 2006 returned the home to its original grandeur while thoughtfully updating it for modern living. European details include hand-painted ceilings, leaded and stained glass, custom wrought iron, and exquisite woodwork throughout. Highlights include a two-story library with quarter-sawn oak built-ins, an updated primary suite with private balcony, spa-style baths, and custom closets. The walk-out lower level opens to the grounds and swimming pool, perfectly positioned near an entertainer's kitchen. Stone stairways lead through lush gardens down to the creek below. The Chteau at 1220 Yale Avenue is one of Salt Lake City's most iconic legacy estates-offering historic significance, architectural excellence, and unparalleled natural beauty. A private showing is invited.
