Samuel Hamill House
Adolph Richter, a local real estate speculator, had this one-and-a- half-story house constructed in 1905 for investment purposes. Architect David C. Dart, a native of Salt Lake City, designed the home. The style of the house is popularly known as Dutch Colonial Revival. Characteristics of the style found on the dwelling include its gambrel roof, front porch with balustrades and Doric columns, and nine-over-one pane windows.
Upon its completion, it was sold to Samuel and Sophia Hamill. Mr. and Mrs. Hamill were active in the First Presbyterian Church and Samuel worked for Putin and Brooks, a wholesale china importer. The Hamill’s owned the property for several decades. The house maintains its historic and architectural integrity and is a contributing resource within the Avenues Historic District.
919 East Third Avenue in the Avenues Historic District in Salt Lake City, Utah.
