Knight-Mangum House, Tudor and Arts and Crafts house in Provo, United States

The Knight-Mangum House is a two-and-a-half-story Arts and Crafts house completed in 1908 in Provo. Its first story is clinker brick, with wood frame and stucco above, a steep gable roof with exposed rafters, stick work, cross gables, gable dormers, and a flat-roofed porch wrapping the southeast corner.

The Knight–Mangum House was completed in 1908 for W. Lester Mangum and Jennie Knight Mangum, daughter of mining magnate Jesse Knight. The lot cost $3,500 and construction about $40,000, funded by the Mangums' sale of Tintic mine shares bought at twenty cents and sold for eight dollars. Provo contractors the Alexandis Brothers built it.

The house reflects the wealth the Mangum family gained through mining investments in the region. This connection to the mining industry shaped the local economy and made such elaborate construction possible in the early 1900s.

The house can be viewed from the exterior and is located in a quiet residential neighborhood that is easy to explore on foot. Visitors should note that it is a private residence, so interior tours may not be available.

After W. Lester Mangum died in 1949, the house was sold to Paul Salisbury of Salt Lake City, who divided it into eleven apartments. In 1969 it was acquired by Milo Baughman, a furniture designer and then chairman of BYU's Environmental Design Department. It remains an apartment building, and the carriage house beside it was also converted into apartments.
