The John Albert Scorup House is a historic house in Bluff, Utah. It was built in 1903-1904 for John Albert Scorup, a white settler of Ephraim, Utah whose parents were Danish-born converts to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. [2] Scorup became a cattleman and banker. [2] He lived in Bluff with his first wife, Emma Bayless, and their six daughters until 1917, when he moved to Provo. [2] The house was designed in the Late Victorian style and built by stone masons Nick Loveless (or Lovelace) and Ed Thompson. [2] The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. [1]
Photos from 1982 show the building apparently vacant; the 2007 photo above shows it has been improved.
