Love midcentury modern architecture? Check out this three-bedroom, three-bath home in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Dreier built many steel and glass residences for Salt Lake’s high-end communities, refining his skill to include large windows, flat rooflines, a mix of structural materials, and a relentless attention to detail. In this 3,693-square-foot home in the Federal Heights neighborhood, Dreier designed an exterior with sculpted roofline, a unique stone and wood facade, and mature Zen gardens.

Inside, an open floor plan balances walls of glass with warm mahogany built-ins throughout. Thoughtful indoor-outdoor living is paramount; multiple side patios and the front porch integrate the living spaces to the outdoors. Other perks include a two-car garage, laundry room, and a private office that enjoys midday sun. 1336 East Arlington Drive is on the market now for $875,000.
