The Orson Grimmett Bungalow was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. [1]

The house was deemed "locally significant for its association with a prominent local builder whose work is still visible in Paris and surrounding towns. Grimmett also owned and operated the Star Confectionery, a 1920's soda fountain. His house at Twenty-eight West Second North, which he built himself, is a strikingly unpretentious, simple plan. The standard bungalow shape is only slightly embellished with purlins and brackets, and the shallow bays and dormers do little to deny the building's boxy massing. Like the Paris LDS Seminary that Grimmett built during this period, the Grimmett bungalow belies a conservative, formulaic, and classicizing bent in LDS architecture, which may be traced from the nineteenth century folk architecture through the twentieth century forms. The Grimmett bungalow is architecturally significant as an owner-built expression of this Mormon esthetic." [2]

In the United States, the National Register of Historic Places classifies its listings by various types of architecture. Listed properties often are given one or more of 40 standard architectural style classifications that appear in the National Register Information System (NRIS) database. Other properties are given a custom architectural description with "vernacular" or other qualifiers, and others have no style classification. Many National Register-listed properties do not fit into the several categories listed here, or they fit into more specialized subcategories.
