A-frame of Wonders!



I LOVE this little A-frame house.  It is located in the 800 N block of 1200 E in Provo, UT.  Don't you just love how the large tree in the front frames the house from above?  Everything is asymmetrical in a pleasing way.  The A shape itself isn't even even.  Nor are the windows that reside under it.  But wait, it gets MORE interesting still!




Do you see those funny dots on the shingles of the sharpest side of the A-line roof?  They are WINDOWS!!  Tiny little roof-shingle-shaped windows.  And at the back, a sort of square bay-window pokes out!




Come around to the front door and you will find a gorgeous stone chimney.  And look again!  Little tiny square windows by the front door and over another big window on the right.




Their garden is just starting to pop out some color for spring.



 How beautiful!  What do you think?  Could you ever live in a home this unique? 






P.S.  I found some government records online that showed this house back in the day.  It was apparently built in 1952, has 2385 square feet, 6 bedrooms, and 2 baths!  It used to have a shake roof and that beautiful tree in front was just starting out!
