In Pictures: S-Line Townhomes are framed out

Isaac Riddle on March 30, 2015

Living along the S-Line in Sugar House won’t be cheap.  Prices for four new townhomes on the S-Line near 800 East will start at the mid $300,000.   According to Zillow, the price for the townhomes is significantly more than the price of adjacent homes.

The townhome project is the first new residential development built directly on the S-Line streetcar and greenway since the line opened in December of 2013.  The three-story townhomes are fully framed out and construction could be completed by mid to late summer.

Sego Homes, known for building energy-efficient townhomes in Daybreak, is the developer of the project.  The townhomes were built to directly engage with the S-Line.  The development required approval by the Planning Commission to build without direct street frontage.  Instead of having the front of the homes face the street, the townhomes will directly face the streetcar and greenway with a rear street accessing the first-floor garages off 800 East.
