Some houses are more than places to live—they are surviving expressions of the craftsmanship, ambition, and architectural imagination of another century.
Built in 1896 by William Raymond, this extraordinary Victorian residence in Ogden, Utah, offers an uncommon combination of historic elegance, generous living space, and an expansive natural setting.
1417 S Washington Blvd E, Ogden, UT 84404 | Offered at $725,000
5 Bedrooms | 2 Full Bathrooms | 2 Half Bathrooms | 3,922 Sq Ft | Built in 1896 | 1.37 Acres
Its exterior reflects the individuality of Victorian design, while the interior preserves details that old-house enthusiasts treasure: original woodwork and flooring, leaded-glass windows, charming bay windows, traditional pocket doors, and an impressive front banister crafted from imported Philippine mahogany.
Three fireplaces add warmth and character throughout the home, while the original radiators remain as reminders of an earlier heating system alongside modern central gas heating and air conditioning. Across approximately 3,922 square feet, five bedrooms and four bathrooms provide room for family living, guests, and flexible work or hobby spaces.
A den or office offers a quiet place to work, and the property’s accessory-apartment feature may provide additional flexibility, subject to verification of its configuration and permitted use.
The home’s three-story layout, distinctive windows, and surviving period details create an atmosphere that would be difficult to reproduce in a new build. Beyond the house, the grounds are equally compelling: approximately 1.37 acres spread across three parcels, with mature trees, an open meadow, fruit trees, and Mill Creek bordering the property.
A gazebo and storage sheds enhance the outdoor setting, while parking for approximately 30 vehicles and a concrete slab create possibilities for substantial storage or a future garage or workshop, subject to zoning and approvals.
The property is zoned CP-2, which allows residential and certain qualifying commercial uses but not multifamily development; buyers should confirm proposed uses directly with Ogden City.
With its combination of architectural heritage, creekside landscape, and potential for a distinctive residential or qualifying commercial vision, this is a property that invites imagination as much as admiration.
Offered at $725,000, the William Raymond Victorian presents a rare opportunity to steward a 19th-century Ogden landmark while enjoying the space, setting, and flexibility of an unusually generous property.
