The Niels Ole Anderson House is a historic house in Ephraim, Utah. It was built in 1868 for Niels Ole Anderson, an immigrant from Sweden whose parents converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and settled in Utah in 1854–1855, when Anderson was ten years old.[2] He served in the Black Hawk War in 1865.[2] Anderson lived in this house, designed with elements of Greek Revival and Federal styles, with his first wife, Josephine Overglade, and their nine children.[2] He served as a missionary in his native Sweden from 1880 to 1882.[3] After his wife died in 1884, he married Matilda Nielson in 1885, and they had a son, Niels Henry.[2] The house was inherited by his ancestors.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since October 5, 1978.[1]

It is at the southwest corner of E. 300 South and S. 100 East.[4]
