Susan Leggett Clark House

Constructed in 1885 for Ezra T. Clark’s second wife, Susan Leggett Clark, this beautiful brick house replaced her humble adobe home, which had been built in 1868. It was built in the picturesque Second Empire style, featuring a straight mansard roof with a hipped crown and gable dormers on all facades. The house incorporates an eclectic collection of details on the exterior and was the height of style at the time of its construction. This home is the only surviving example of Second Empire style in Farmington. Susan Leggett was originally from England and met her husband while he was serving an LDS mission there. She was a dedicated and resourceful mother with a fine talent for needlework. Her daughter, Annie Clark Tanner, lived just down the street and wrote Susan’s biography.
