When we look at historical homes, we often wonder what the history is. Wait till you hear this one...the story is over a century old, and we are ready to paint you the portrait of how it all began. This home is not only chock full of historical treasures but decade after decade of love, care, and updates beyond your imagination by its owners. Built and owned by Dr. Ellis Reynolds Shipp, one of Utah's first female Physicians, she built this home, lived here, and used it as her medical office. A wife and mother in 1878, Ellis went back east to medical school while pregnant with child #6. She brought back her love of medical care to Utah and focused her practice here on obstetrics and founded a school that trained hundreds of midwives. Way ahead of her time, this pioneering woman built this home to last for a lifetime, full of large, roomy spaces that flow beautifully together. As you enter the home, the first thing that grabs you is the soaring ceiling height and the warmth of natural wood flooring. A formal living and dining room are next adorned with original windows, all intact, and the gumwood is in perfect condition from top to bottom. Our current owner updated the kitchen and added a mudroom entry, pantry, and powder room to enhance our everyday modern living. March up the double-entry staircase to arrive at your end-of-the-day soft landing in the primary suite. We have everything you want here, bath and walk-in closet included. The extras in the additional bedrooms? One adorns top-to-bottom bookcases, a window seat, and a fireplace ever so cozy you may never want to leave. Another has a spacious upper deck looking out back and facing north for cool summer nights. The basement is no longer a cellar but a wonderful place to lounge with a bath and storage beyond your imagination. The other bragging right? The current owners had the home retrofitted during the remodel with some seismic upgrades so the house can withstand the elements for decades to come. Welcome spring in this year out back. Enjoy the privacy of this enchanting yard with places to grow veggies and play space for children and pets. We didn't forget a garage: 2 car, off-street parking, a gem to have in the avenues. To sum it all up, this is your modern heirloom- the place where new traditions start. **Please submit any offer on this property by April 29th 12 PM. Seller will respond 4/30 at 12PM.**
