Walter Hedquist House

Walter Hedquist House

While dating Sara and Kevin Wall visited her grandfather. As they walked into his house, Kevin told Sara, “I would love to live in a house like this someday.” His wish came true ten years ago when they purchased the home from Sara’s father after her grandfather’s death. Their seventy-eight year old brick home with its steep roof, half-timbered façade, multi-paned, leaded glass windows, and low gabled, rounded front entry is typically Tudor Revival style. It was built by Walter Hedquist, a Provo druggist, and later owned by Myron Fulrath, a Geneva Steel executive. Sara’s paternal grandparents, Boyd and Louise McAffee, purchased the home in the 1950s and raised their five children there. Boyd was a prominent educator in the Provo School District, serving as principal of Timpanogos Elementary and later, as the first principal of Provost Elementary. The Wall family enjoys spending time in the beautiful sun room and being with their close friends from the neighborhood.
