George M. Cannon House, Late Victorian mansion in Forest Dale, United States.
The George M. Cannon House is a two-story brick residence in Salt Lake City featuring late Victorian architectural details. Its design includes brick corbelling, round arch windows, stained-glass transoms, and porch ornamentation characteristic of the Eastlake style from that era.
The house was built in 1890 and originally belonged to George Mousley Cannon, who developed the surrounding land into a residential subdivision. His transformation of the area marked the beginning of Forest Dale as a distinct neighborhood.
The residence now operates as a bed and breakfast with guest rooms decorated according to different artistic themes. This use allows visitors to stay within the house and experience its spaces firsthand while contributing to its preservation.
The house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood and stands as the only individually registered property within its historic district. Its proximity to nearby landmarks and amenities makes it simple to combine a visit with exploration of the surrounding area.
The house gained public attention when its renovation process was featured on a home improvement television program with national reach. This media exposure introduced the property to a wider audience and contributed to its recognition today.
