Potential SLC Modern Project

I fully realize that the term “affordable” means different things to different people. I have always wanted to build a modern home in Salt Lake. We got a taste of it with our last addition and we vow that we will build again one day. The hard part is finding a lot in a good neighborhood and then still having any money left over for construction. If $450K is affordable, or even doable for you, here is a good opportunity. My friend had a great 3,000 square foot home designed by Jesperson Design, and had a great lot in Cottonwood Heights. Plans fell through and now the lot is up for sale for $279K. For that price it comes with the plans for the home (renderings shown above). Total cost should come in right around $450K for everything. That works out to be around $140 a square foot, which is really not bad for a modern home in a good neighborhood.

    I wish I could afford that and were in a situation to move. We love that area. Been vacationing there for the last couple of years. Walking distance to Pistol Pete’s too, bonus.

    It looks like this home celebrates the automobile more than architecture. Creede, You should try to get us some more renderings that show more than just the garage. I am sure it has more to offer than a big garage door and a receding entrance. If the lot is selling for $279.00 and the total project cost is $450k that leaves $170,000 for actual construction. At 3000 sq. feet that would mean about $56.00 per square foot for construction cost which is very ambitious. Great views though. Why did they have to give up their dream?
