Home #1 - Arroyo Rojo

Arroyo Rojo - 1566 N. Great Falls Drive, Washington UT
Our first impression of the Arroyo Rojo, located as far down Green Springs Drive as you can go, was "well, this is pretty typical St. George architecture."  One story rambler.  A mix of stucco and stone.  The blurb in the Parade of Homes book describes the exterior as "Southwest-Tuscan"; yeah, a fitting description that covers about 90% of Washington County, Utah.

The front entry was stunning, though - one of our favorite highlights of the home.  Crisp contemporary colors, lovely semi-circle design in the tile work, and a super modern brushed nickel and linen shade chandelier.  Ah, we love contemporary design and there's a distinct lack of it around these parts.

Beautiful booties complement the contemporary tile, no?

Glory divine, that chandelier is fine.
Unique tile design upon entry.  Mmm, yes please.
We disagreed on our love/hate for this focal wall in the living room.  I LOVE the light hardwood  media center, the contemporary glass fusion, and the cosmic accessories.  Zak hated the asymmetry.  Ya win some, ya lose some.


Master bedroom - good size.  Nothing to sneeze at.
Super contemporary brushed nickel industrial light fixtures in the master bath.  Can't ask for anything more than that, really.
Zak enjoys water falling from the Heavens.  Rain shower head.


The Verdict:
