Jeppa Nelson, House, 150 West 1100 North St Pleasant Grove, Utah County, UT
The log granary was likely built as a grain and food produce storage structure. It is architecturally intact and typical of pioneer era vernacular log construction. The vernacular bungalow is the result of modifications done to the ca. 1885 four room rock house of Jeppa Nelson. Later expanded to six room, the house was stuccoed, given new porches and probably a new roof in ca. 1921 by the Brinley family. As the home was altered to conform with the bungalow style then popular in the United States, visible signs of the earlier home were completely obscured. The present bungalow is architecturally intact and representative of homes of its style. Together, the two buildings represent the architectural progression that occurred locally and through Utah between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
