252 N 400 ECenterville, UT 84014

Description

NEW PRICE - $1,650,000. A rare opportunity to own one of Centerville's most distinctive historic estates. Built in 1875 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the William Capener House is a property that simply cannot be recreated. Set on approximately .805 acre at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains, the estate includes a 3,679-square-foot main residence and an approximately 2,806-square-foot detached barn and guest building, offering more than 6,400 square feet across both structures and an extraordinary range of possibilities. Lovingly cared for by the same owners since 1982, the main residence has been thoughtfully restored and updated while retaining its historic integrity. This is a historic home meant to be lived in, not a museum. Original wood floors, soaring ceilings, tall windows, beadboard, transom glass, handcrafted architectural details, and multiple fireplaces preserve its character and craftsmanship, while thoughtful updates provide the comfort and functionality expected of modern living. The addition to the main residence and the detached barn were designed by renowned architect Robert McArthur, thoughtfully expanding the property while respecting the character of the original 1875 home. The barn is a destination of its own. The main level includes a game room and beautifully appointed two-bedroom, two-bath guest or mother-in-law quarters with a restored vintage stove. The upper level offers a spacious studio and workshop ideal for creative pursuits, hobbies, storage, or other flexible uses. City-approved plans for covered parking are included. Outside, a man-made stream and waterfall wind through mature grounds filled with heritage almond, tulip, and black walnut trees, grapevines, patios, gardens, a charming wishing well reaching approximately 65 feet deep, and the original Centerville Express playground. The setting lends itself beautifully to entertaining, intimate gatherings, multigenerational living, creative pursuits, or simply enjoying a property that feels worlds away while remaining remarkably connected. Located approximately 15 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City and near hiking trails, mountain recreation, and historic downtown Centerville, this is not simply a historic home. It is a property with a story-and an opportunity for its next owner to become part of it. Historic furnishings selected by the seller are included with the sale. Main residence approximately 3,679 square feet, obtained from county records. Detached barn and guest building approximately 2,806 square feet. Addition to the main residence completed in 2002; detached guest quarters completed in 2013. Square footage figures are provided as a courtesy estimate only and were obtained from County Records. Buyer is advised to obtain an independent measurement.
