Harvard House

The following pictures are of the "Harvard House." The house is located on Harvard Avenue in Salt Lake City. This is one of the first projects that I had my hands in from start to finish. Along with the owners input, I designed, completed the plans and helped along the way during construction. It was a learning experience and I think that it turned out fairly well and seems to fit well into the historical nature of the neighborhood even though an addition was placed on the rear as well as a new porch. (before pictures on the left, after on the right)

A side vestibule was also added to the house where coats and misc items could be placed before entering the main part of the house.

On the rear of the house a master bedroom and bath as well as another bedroom was added. The bay window provides a sitting place for the owners to sit and read a book.

On the interior the wall between the family room, dining room and kitchen was removed and a beam was placed that allowed the kitchen to expand and have a more open feel at the front of the house. The owners love to entertain and so the kitchen was a focal point of the remodel.

The owners seem to love the house and I think that it still fits very well in the neighborhood. What are your thoughts?
