Offered for the first time in more than 50 years, this distinctive 1918 Yalecrest residence sits on an extraordinary 0.41-acre property extending to Red Butte Creek. The home has had only five owners and retains much of the character that has defined it for more than a century. A 1982 architectural study identified the residence as a local example of Prairie School-influenced design, noting its low hipped roof, smooth stucco exterior, strong horizontal lines, original masonry fireplace elements and understated period woodwork. The home offers four bedrooms and two full bathrooms upstairs, a main-level powder room, basement and garage. It is ready for a substantial renovation, giving the next owner an opportunity to thoughtfully update the property while preserving the architectural details that make it distinctive. The generous lot, mature surroundings, creekside setting and rarely available Yale Avenue location create an exceptional foundation for its next chapter.
