The Atkins and Smith House, at 390 N. 400 West in Beaver, Utah, was built in 1873.[1]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
It was built in two parts, probably both by Thomas Frazer, the Scottish-born local stonemason. The first part was a one-room black rock cottage, with a symmetric window-door-window front facade, with ashlar stonework, and with wood lintels and a Greek Revival style cornice. It was one of the first "permanent" houses in Beaver, and was probably built for James Atkins.[2]
The second is a pink rock one-and-a-half-story addition built around 1890 on the north side of the original cottage, with jerkinheads and a broad cornice. Its windows and doors have pink rock lintels. It was built for John A. Smith, then the new owner.[2]
The house is significant for its "unaltered, historic design."[2]
