Description
Historical Victorian mansion landscaped with vivid flowers, bushes, hedge and trees. The house features plenty of gingerbread woodwork and intricate patterned brickwork. Francis Armstrong, two term mayor of Salt Lake City built his Queen Anne home in 1893. It was one of the few homes in all of Salt Lake City with indoor-plumbing and running water. The house had a master bedroom, Victorian dining room, library, parlor, and living quarters for house staff. Isabel Armstrong owned the building until her death in 1930.
The mansion was used as an office building, location of an acupuncture clinic, and even housed a motorcycle repair shop. Private investors restored the mansion and transformed it into a historic Bed and Breakfast in 1990.
