Greene,

Yes, you are insane to spend millions in Holladay....just kidding, but really you can live like you spent millions but there are a couple good bargains to live next to those who have spent millions, but for a lot less.
I have a beautiful .52 acre lot on a private driveway at Big Cottonwood Rd. (6200 S and 2100 East). This location is still in the prestigious sections of Holladay but without the heavy price tag. It is also very conveniently accessible to I-215 at 2000 E and at 6200 S, as well as Van Winkle/Highland Dr. and Holladay Blvd. This provides very quick, convenient access to the freeway, but still tucked away in wooded seclusion.

The lot is heavily wooded with about 30 trees with over a dozen mature trees 50-80 feet tall and has water rights to the Big Cottonwood-Tanner Ditch (valued around $5000).The listing is below. There is a 1960's house on it that would be a good fixer-upper. It has been gutted and could easily be updated, however, in many opinions I have encountered it is better suited to be torn down and have a dream home built on the lot.

It is listed under just under $500k. This lot is located across from homes over $ 1 Million. Building a home on this lot for $150,000-$200,000 could easily fetch over $1 Million in value from appreciation. I am not in the market to fund a spec home. I was holding this property for an investor who collapsed under some other deals, but now I need to sell it....I am quite motivated. If you write an offer under $500k , you will likely get it. I would also consider renting the property while the new home is constructed.

If you are interested, drop me a message or talk with my realtor in the listing!

You could live in BCC and commute most of the time. BCC is usually restricted to chains/4x4 during most winter storms until the storm passes, but it is usually manageble. Only a couple times during a storm does it get closed completely...not as bad as Little Cottonwood Canyon with avalanche control closures.

In case you want to consider a great location in Holladay on Big Cottonwood Rd. (6200 S and 2100 East), I have a .52 acre lot on a private driveway. This location is still in the prestigious sections of Holladay but without the heavy price tag. It is also very conveniently accessible to I215 at 2000 E and at 6200 S, as well as Van Winkle/Holladay Blvd. This is also a direct line to Big Cottonwood Canyon...about three fast miles from the mouth of BCC.

The lot is heavily wooded with about 30 trees with over a dozen mature trees 50-80 feet tall and has water rights to the Big Cottonwood-Tanner Ditch (valued around $5000).The listing is below. There is a 1960's house on it that would be a good fixer-upper. It has been gutted and could easily be updated, however, in many opinions I have encountered it is better suited to be torn down and have a dream home built on the lot.

It is listed under just under $550k, but I am about to drop it under $500,000. This lot is located across from homes over $ 1 Million. Building a home on this lot for $150,000-$200,000 could easily fetch over $1 Million in value from appreciation. I am not in the market to fund a spec home. I was holding this property for an investor who collapsed under some other deals, but now I need to sell it....I am quite motivated. If you write an offer under $500k , you will likely get it.
