History
"The Fox House" was built in 1912 from remnants of rock used to build the historic Mormon Temple, in downtown Salt Lake City. The structure was originally built simply as a place to pelt fox and mink. The farm operated from 1912 to 1970. The original rock shell was completely remodeled for use as a home in the early 1970s. One family of eleven children was raised in the home from 1973 to 1993.

A second complete remodel and refurnishing of the home, and re-landscaping of the property, began in 2018 and continues to this day. The home still has unfinished elements to it, including exposed old wood that will not be attractive to some guests. It is simply a very old house. If you expect a new house with paint, plastic fixtures, plastic laminates, linoleum, porcelain, polyurethane, sheetrock, corian or other modern materials, you will be disappointed. Expect natural materials such as: stained wood, quartzite, slate, leather, iron, copper and glass. The home is a work in progress.

The effort endeavors to create a Craftsman-styled home, reminiscent of the American Arts & Crafts (1890-1920) movement that peaked around 1912. The roof material is a combination of hand-split cedar shakes and solid copper panels.
