The Utah Governor's Mansion is the official residence of the Governor of Utah and family. It is located at 603 E. South Temple St., Salt Lake City, Utah.

Built in 1902 by United States Senator and mining magnate Thomas Kearns, the house was designed by notable Utah architect Carl M. Neuhausen, who also designed the Cathedral of the Madeleine in Salt Lake City. In February 1937 Jennie Judge Kearns donated the Kearns Mansion to the state with the condition that it serve as the Governor's Residence.

It was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places as, and is also known as, the Thomas Kearns Mansion and Carriage House. The listing included two contributing buildings on a 9-acre (3.6 ha) property.[1]
