This sophisticated modern mountain home was designed by Lloyd Architects, located in Alpine City, a quiet residential community tucked into the foothills of Lone Peak in the Wasatch Mountain Range of Northern Utah. The site straddles Three Falls Creek and is largely wooded with native oak and other deciduous trees with an open meadow and views to the North of the house and views of Utah Lake and Valley to the south.
The linked pavilions are expressed as simple vernacular gabled forms which recall the mountain peaks beyond and define the three living areas of the house while being separated by daylit connector ‘bridges’ that create a floating transparency from mountain to valley.

Materials for the house center on natural traditional building materials including Indiana Limestone, stained Accoya siding, copper gutters and trim along with a discrete integrated Tesla solar roof tile system that generates 24 kW of sustainable energy for the house.
What We Love: This sophisticated mountain home offers its inhabitants unobstructed views of the Wasatch Mountain Range. A relaxed vibe can be found throughout this home thanks to the large windows that frame the breathtaking beauty that surrounds this dwelling. We can imagine being nestled inside this inviting home and watching the changing of the seasons through the expansive walls of glazing from the comfortably designed living spaces.

Interior finishes are sophisticated, yet relaxed with Walnut millwork, textural stone, and touches of brass repeated throughout the home.
The owner’s bedroom and children’s bedroom access are separated from the gathering pavilion through the bridge and open stairs.
