The Martin Johnson House, at 45 W. 400 South in Glenwood, Utah, was built in c.1880. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.^[1]

Martin Johnson was born in Denmark in 1861, came to Utah with his parents in 1866, and probably built this house in preparation for his marriage; he was married in 1884.^[2]

The house is a one-and-a-half-story adobe structure laid out in a modified pair-house plan. It has Gothic Revival-style cross gable above the main entrance, though not symmetrically placed. It has decorative details including Doric columns on its porch and scroll-cut bargeboards.^[2]
