This little gem sits somewhere in Carson City. Where? Well, that’s a secret. The homeowners made us promise to not reveal its location. And, that’s a promise we intend to keep!
What we do know is that the original owner contracted with officials at the Stewart Indian School in the late 1950s or early 1960s – seems the owner wanted the house built by the trade students at the school. When we say trade, we mean the electrical, plumbing, black smithing, carpentry and masonry students.
We know that members of the Wungnema Family (Randall Wungnema for one) took the lead on the stone work ( If you look closely, you can see a piece or two of Turquoise in the front wall of the pump house!). And there is quite a bit of stonework – the house with the fire place, the surrounding wall and the pump house. The finished work, the hard work by all the students, is gorgeous!
