Wasatch Hollow: a well-established Salt Lake suburb

Wasatch Hollow gets its name from its location near the base of the Wasatch Mountains and 5 miles from downtown Salt Lake City. This hilly neighborhood has a variety of single-family homes with front lawn gardens and tree-shaded sidewalks lined with decorations like stones. People can easily walk to parks and the 15th and 15th shopping district at the neighborhood’s center. “The old homes here come with beautiful views of the Wasatch Mountains, and they’re within walking distance of 15th and 15th, one of the best places to shop in the city,” says Julie Livers, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, who has lived in the area for two decades. The neighborhood is 2 miles from the nearest highway, Interstate 80, and people prefer to get around the neighborhood by walking or biking. “People who live here don’t want to drive; they like to walk everywhere,” says Brian Babb, a Realtor with Equity Real Estate who has been selling homes in the area for nearly a decade. “It’s a very walkable neighborhood, very peaceful and quiet.”

The 15th and 15th shopping district

In the heart of Wasatch Hollow is the 15th and 15th, a small shopping district woven in seamlessly with the residential area. Here, Tulie Bakery serves coffee in small, white porcelain cups with matching plates and breakfast snacks like croissants and quiche, and across the street is Mazza, a Middle Eastern spot with indoor and outdoor seating. People visit the contemporary 15th Street Gallery next door for jewelry, artwork and décor, and local grocer Harmons Emigration Market has been serving the Salt Lake community since 1932.

Eclectic homes from the early 1900s

“Wasatch Hollow has a mix of styles, like bungalows and Tudors,” Babb says. “The homes are super cool.” One-story homes, like early 1900s bungalows, Tudors and Craftsman houses, line Wasatch Hollow’s streets. Prices range between $550,000 and $2 million, depending on acreage, age and renovations. Some properties have steep gable roofs and chimneys, while others have colorful front doors. Grassy front lawns sit behind wide sidewalks, and paved driveways are long enough to reach backyards.
