Description and history
editThe two-story, Victorian style house was built for English-born local rancher Thomas Austin in 1901 for $4,000. According to its NRHP nomination, it is "the best example in Lehi of Victorian domestic architecture." And: "At a time when eclecticism and irregularity in house design was at a premium, the Austin House projects an asymmetry of massing and mixing of historical details which is truly exceptional."[2]
