McCune Mansion Tour

Alfred and Elizabeth McCune stopped keeping track of expenses after the costs for their “simple” bungalow on Capitol Hill reached $500,000. They imported roof tiles from Holland , rare white satin-grained mahogany from South America , and a room-sized mirror from Germany . The ceiling murals and decorative borders alone took an artist from New York two years to finish. Completed in 1901 and restored in 2001, the McCune Mansion remains a Utah showplace. Spend an hour touring the mansion from the first floor’s octagonal reception room to the third floor’s glittering ballroom. The Venetian marble bathroom alone is worth the tour!
