In our newest ‘Home of the Week‘ we move from a zen-like home in Purchase, New York to a villa perched high above the city lights of Salt Lake City, Utah.

This contemporary European villa listed at $9,950,000 is reminiscent of the top luxury resorts you would find in Hawaii or coastal Italy. Prevailing wisdom holds that you can’t have it all, but this home certainly calls that into question. The surrounding 100 year-old oak trees and unhindered panoramic views are the benefit of its 2.5 acre private mountaintop location, but it is just five minutes from Salt Lake City’s bustling urban culture.

The interior of this flawlessly designed home is not to be outdone. Great attention was paid to every aspect of the interior, including the materials of the finishes and even the natural colors present throughout that balance the European style and design perfectly. Each room makes a statement; from high ceilings that give the home an airy feel, to the grand staircase that is evocative of the grandeur and elegance of a bygone era.

Whether you’re enjoying a nice red and a game of pool with friends in your basement or dining al fresco in one of the ample terraces – entertaining in style is a breeze in this 10,000 square foot home. One of our favorite parts of this property is the resort-like pool and patio area ideal for warm weather parties and enjoying inspiring city-light views.
