A Mid-Century Masterpiece with Soul and Provenance

Utah's most iconic Mid-Century Modern home, designed in 1957 by renowned Swiss architect Eduard Dreier for the Smith's Food & Drug family, sits atop a quiet cul-de-sac in the coveted St. Mary’s neighborhood. The .55 acre site delivers sweeping views of downtown Salt Lake City, the Great Salt Lake, and the Wasatch foothills. Lovingly restored and honored with the Utah Heritage Award for Restoration and Renovation, this 5,447 sq ft architectural landmark pairs Dreier’s signature elements such as exposed steel beams, walls of glass, a cantilevered roofline, and granite rock walls with warm modern luxury.

A 1,110 sq ft glass and steel attached guest house, designed in 2016 by Dreier protégé Brent Groesbeck, floats above the main home and creates an elevated entertaining space. Lawns, gardens, and carefully designed exterior lighting frame the property and set the stage for memorable gatherings. The mountainside setting offers privacy, natural beauty, and quick access to top schools, skiing, and the city.

Features include an office, custom walnut millwork, vintage hardware, two chef’s kitchens, floor-to-ceiling windows, gallery walls suited for art, a heated saltwater pool and jacuzzi, basketball court, old growth trees, pollinator and succulent gardens, Italian lighting, a steam shower, and secure gates crafted by Utah artist Cordell Taylor. This home is a rare merging of architecture, nature, and lifestyle. A once in a lifetime offering.
