131 Cottage Grove Ave SE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52403

Built for the Sutherland Dows, Jr. family, photos saved by the family show the building progress along with a box of original architectural pencil drafts of the property, passed on to each owner, detailing the custom features. From moldings on the fireplace mantel & intricate crown molding to railing spindles & paneled doors, the custom architectural crafting is one-of-a-kind. The layout of paving bricks in the fireplace hearth of the remodeled primary bedroom, bathroom & dressing room are carefully drawn. Built in an acreage of woods off Dows Ln, eventually subdivided into a gated community, Sutherland Square. 10’ ceilings, built-ins throughout & 2 walk-in attics, storage is optimal. The kitchen cabinets are mid-century modern St. Charles as used by Frank Lloyd Wright in his designs, with hardwood & maple veneer & stainless steel interiors along with stainless steel & maple butcher block to maintain the St. Charles look.
