The Thomas L. Allen House is a historic house located at 98 North Main Street in Coalville, Utah.

Description and history

Constructed in the 1880s, it is a "fine" house significant for association with Thomas L. Allen, who was an architect and builder as well as being a LDS area leader and a businessman. Allen is notable specifically for designing and building the National Register-listed Coalville Tabernacle, and built this house, too. A painted plaster ceiling in the parlor, by Danish immigrant C.M. Olsen, is a "highlight" of the house, and is similar to works by Olsen in the Coalville Tabernacle. [2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 23, 1982. [1]
