ABOUT THIS SPACE This is a full two-story home — one side of a well-maintained duplex — with 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and space for up to 7 guests. It is set up for real life, not just sleeping. Come for a night or a week, and you will feel the difference. Upstairs is where you decompress. The living room has an electric fireplace that throws real warmth, room-darkening shades so you can actually sleep in, and a ceiling fan to keep things comfortable year-round. The kitchen is genuinely stocked — gas stove, full oven, full-size fridge, microwave, blender, toaster, baking sheet, wine glasses, and a Keurig coffee bar with coffee included. You are not hunting for a pan or a cutting board. Everything you need to cook a proper meal is already here. The queen bedroom upstairs has its own en suite bathroom — your private retreat, no hallway traffic required. Head downstairs and the vibe shifts completely. The family room has a full-size Pac-Man arcade cabinet (the real deal, not a mini), a game console, and a stack of board games. Kids will plant themselves here and not surface for hours. Adults will do the same. The twin bedroom sleeps two on separate twin beds, and there is a second full bathroom on this level. If you are traveling with a baby or toddler, a crib and pack-n-play are available — just ask. The laundry is in-unit: full-size washer and dryer, not a coin-op closet. That matters when you are on a longer trip or coming back from a muddy ski day. For anyone who needs to work, there is a dedicated workspace with a measured 554 Mbps Google Fiber connection and an Ethernet port. This is not "fast enough for streaming." It is legitimately fast, reliable internet built for remote work. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is a genuine hangout space — hammock, gas BBQ grill, and outdoor dining furniture. The backyard is shared with the neighboring unit at 523 Gallacher, which is also a rental, so you may have neighbors back there. The front patio is private and has armchairs — a good spot for morning coffee or an evening wind-down. --- LOCATION AND NEARBY 521 Gallacher sits in the 9th & 9th neighborhood — one of Salt Lake's most beloved pockets, known for its independent restaurants, tree-lined streets, and actual community feel. This is not a sterile short-term rental corridor. People live here, eat here, and walk their dogs here. From your front door: Beans & Brews coffee: 3 min walk Caffe Molise Italian: 4 min walk Nomad Eatery: 5 min walk The Dodo (legendary SLC brunch spot): 6 min walk TRAX light rail at 900 South: 6 min walk — runs direct to downtown, the airport, and the University of Utah Tulie Bakery: 8 min walk By car: University of Utah campus: 8 min Delta Center and downtown Salt Lake: 10 min Natural History Museum of Utah + Red Butte Garden: 12 min Salt Lake City International Airport: 18 min Brighton, Solitude, Alta, and Snowbird ski resorts: 20 min That ski resort proximity is worth pausing on. Twenty minutes from four world-class mountains. Brighton and Solitude sit in Big Cottonwood Canyon. Alta and Snowbird are in Little Cottonwood. These are not regional hills — they regularly rank among the best ski destinations in the country. If skiing or snowboarding is anywhere in your travel plans, this home is positioned better than almost any hotel in the city. The TRAX stop six minutes away changes the math on downtown visits. Skip the parking hassle, jump on the train, and get dropped two blocks from the Delta Center, Temple Square, or the Gateway. It also connects directly to the airport terminal — no shuttle, no rideshare queue, no problem. --- WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR Families with kids: The downstairs game room was built for this. A full-size Pac-Man cabinet, a game console, board games, a crib and pack-n-play on request, a fenced backyard for kids to run around — this home anticipates what families actually need. The two-floor layout means adults can sit by the fireplace upstairs while kids are occupied two floors down, and everyone has room to breathe. Ski and snowboard groups: Four resorts, twenty minutes away. In-unit laundry to deal with wet gear. A gas grill for post-ski meals. A hammock to collapse in. The home sleeps 7, so you can split costs across a proper crew and still have space to spread out. A week of skiing from this base costs a fraction of a resort hotel. University of Utah families: Moving a student in, attending graduation, visiting for Family Weekend, or coming in for a medical appointment at University of Utah Health — the U is eight minutes away by car or a quick TRAX ride. This is a far better option than a generic hotel off the freeway. You get a full kitchen, real bedrooms, laundry, and a neighborhood with good food within walking distance. Remote workers and long-stay guests: 554 Mbps Google Fiber with an Ethernet port and a dedicated workspace. That is the setup. If you need reliable internet for video calls, large file transfers, or just grinding through a week of work without fighting hotel wifi, this home handles it. The kitchen means you are not eating out every meal, the washer and dryer mean you can pack light, and the neighborhood gives you somewhere worth walking to when you need to clear your head. Multi-generational groups: The layout works particularly well when generations are traveling together. Grandparents get the queen bedroom and private en suite upstairs. Kids take the twin room and the arcade downstairs. Parents get the living room in between. Everyone has enough space to have their own experience inside the same house.

HOUSE RULES Check-in: 4:00 PM Check-out: 11:00 AM No smoking anywhere on the property, including the backyard and front patio. No parties or events. The home sleeps a maximum of 7 guests. Please do not exceed this. Treat the neighbors with respect — this is a real residential neighborhood. The outdoor areas and backyard are for guests of this unit. The shared backyard is jointly fenced with 523 Gallacher; if that unit is occupied, you may have neighbors in the same outdoor space. Leave the home reasonably tidy at checkout — dishes washed or in the dishwasher, trash in the bins.
