What This House Offers
Lovely Victorian bungalow in downtown Salt Lake City available for lease. This charming historic home is a very spacious 2 bedroom / 1 bathroom with some bonus... spaces incorporated that would make a great home office, storage, exercise, or creative use. All square footage (1554 sq. ft!) is on the main level - a rarity for bungalows. The home is offered unfurnished.
With 11-foot ceilings and extra tall windows, this home has an abundance of natural light. Historic patterned wood moldings and plinths elevate interior ambiance above that of a generic rental property. The main living area has the original pine wood floors and a beautiful custom built-in bookshelf ready to be filled with all of your books! The flooring throughout the rest of the home is tile and luxury laminate. Along with the new custom shelves in the kitchen, there is plenty of counter space, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and large French-door refrigerator. Both bedrooms can easily fit king-sized beds while one bedroom boasts a huge walk-in closet with stained wood shelving. The bonus space is perfect for a work-from-home lifestyle with G Fiber ready to go inside. Washer/Dryer included in-unit and high-end Japanese tankless water heater for on-demand hot water.
Other extras include:
_Top down/Bottom up blinds on all windows
_Updated lighting fixtures
_Ample storage cabinetry in second bedroom and laundry room
Street parking in front is plentiful. Parking permit is required from the city at $50/yr, and includes a guest pass. This property does not offer a garage or off-street parking, but it does have a lockable metal shed in back for storage of bikes, skis, and gear. The spacious and fully-fenced backyard is designed to be low-maintenance and ideal for dogs. There is a doggie door already installed for easy access. Three large garden planter boxes are available for personal vegetable gardening and a pergola was installed December 2025. Pets are permitted with approval and a non-refundable pet fee plus $25 p/month in pet rent. Lawn mowing, weeding, leaf pick-up, and all landscaping work is organized so tenants can enjoy a perfectly manicured yard year-round with zero effort. Tenants contribute $125p/month to share some of the yard maintenance expenses. Tenants pay all utilities: gas, electric, WiFi/Cable, and public utilities (water/trash/recycle/sewer).
Excellent front and back yards provide privacy and room to enjoy some porch time or a BBQ and game of corn hole in the backyard. It's a hip downtown neighborhood that is very walkable. The area incorporates a balanced mix of families, hip professionals, and senior residents.
The Central Ninth area is walkability at its best with a collection of boutique restaurants, bars, local coffee spots, numerous breweries, an artisanal corner market, Barre studio, bouldering gym and more available within a short stroll. A ramen restaurant just opened up on the corner – yes! Exceptional proximity to 900 South freeway access ramp - a feature that makes you a short drive to south end of the Salt Lake Valley and to the many mountain resorts.
Management is bar none the BEST. Enjoy a departure from the typical impersonal and unresponsive corporate-style property management in favor of a much warmer and attentive approach with a smaller rental management outfit that is local to the bone and provides prompt and consistent service to tenants that will impress. Properties are extremely clean - it's a point of pride! We manage just a handful of properties so we can do it well.
We seek quality tenants with excellent communication skills who can appreciate the character of this lovely home and enjoy life downtown in a community of longtime friendly neighbors here on Jefferson Street.
