This absolutely stunning Mid-Century Modern home was first built in 1962 by famous Architect Ron Molen in Salt Lake City, UT. After 50+ years of existence, the home was tired.. some might have even said it was in near disrepair. That is, until local property developers Cody Chamberlain Founder of D3CADE Homes Co. and Jake Halpin of Halpin Investments got their hands on it!
This dedicated team began by removing a pitched roof that had been added in the late 90's. A true shame to the architecture that was so timeless when it was first built. Once completed, the finished product achieved the desired result, the sleek flat roof elevation you see above. Exactly how it was in 1962. They removed all of the windows and replaced them with double-pane sheet glass, individually hand framed in, just as Ron did in the 60's! Every single detail was thought out on this one. Every major component was replaced (plumbing, electrical, flooring, tile, fixtures, cabinets, etc) but was redesigned to feel like the original statement home it once was.
Renovation designer Victoria Chamberlain took it to the next level with her design selections, sourcing the best looking materials to fit the throw-back "Mad Men" feel that the home once had. She spent timeless hours sourcing materials that would do the home justice. Tile imported from Japan? It has it. Amber glass light fixtures resembling the 60's flair? It has that too..
From a speak-easy inspired hidden wet bar to the countertop, direct built-in PITT cooking system - all was thought out start to finish by this dedicated team! The photos do the property justice.. Try not to drool to much over them!
