Located at 233 North East Capitol Street in the Capitol Hill Historic District in Salt Lake City, Utah
Preservation Utah‘s pamphlet from the 53rd Annual Historic Homes Tour of the City Creek Canyon Historic District on May 18, 2024 said this about the home:
This house, built in 1908 for Albert Teasdel, is an example of a particular variation of the Colonial Revival style that was extremely popular in Utah from the late 1800s through the 1940s. All of the variations of Colonial Revival were intended to hearken back to an idealized, simpler period in American history shortly after colonization by various European countries. Teasdel’s house adopted the characteristics of the Dutch Colonial variation-most notably the distinctive gambrel roofs on the east, north, and south facades-as well as its symmetrical façade, and its porch with classical columns. Although the house was built for Albert Teasdel, its primary occupants were members of the Beesley family who lived here from the late 1920s through the late 1950s. The current owners purchased it in 2000 and remodeled it in 2019.
