Constructed in 1904, this large, two-story Neoclassical-influenced style, Foursquare home was built for James W. Saville. Saville, a native of England, was the manager of the crockery department at ZCMI for 40 years. After Saville passed away in 1912, the family sold the home to Sylvester Q. Cannon. Cannon did not live at the home during most of his ownership but made it available as a rental, and converted the house into a multi-family apartment. The home was purchased by Edward Stromness, a blacksmith, and his wife Jean in 1928. The Stromness family owned the property for several decades. Character-defining features of the home include its broad-eaved hip roof, centrally located dormer, and large front porch with columns. A contributing resource to the Avenues Historic District, the home was carefully restored back to a single-family residence in 2010.
