455 PARK AVE Park City, UT 84060

Too often, the character of a space can be covered up or forced out by a major renovation. The temptation for ostentation frequently trumps any dedication to the original feel of a home. However, when the owners of this near 140-year-old, ski-in/ski-out Park City residence decided on an overhaul, they made a keen effort to keep true to the soul of the spot. The result is a contemporary masterpiece, wholly enchanting in its Scandinavian simplicity. All of the updates are both comforting and timeless: hand-scraped oak floors; buttery, warm walls; a kitchen as elegant as it is functional. Plus, tucked behind Main St. in historic Old Town- and nestled behind a couple of evergreens-its location couldn't be more choice. The wrap-around porch is particularly sublime and provides the perfect vantage point from which to take in all the festivity of Park City's much-lauded 4th of July parade. As far as specifics are concerned, there are four spacious bedrooms, a cozy home office, and plenty of room for all of your gear. And, as worrisome as PC's lack of parking can be, the accompanying heated garage means your whip will be safe and cozy year round. Whether it's utilized as a full time living arrangement or as a weekend point of entry to one of Utah's most acclaimed ski resorts, there's plenty of reason to fall firmly, ardently in love with this home.
