The '''Don E. Olsson House and Garage''' is a site on the [[National Register of Historic Places]] located in [[Ronan, Montana]]. It was added to the Register on January 15, 2009.<ref name=nris/>
It was deemed significant "for its mid-century modern residential architecture that represents an early example of the [[Ranch-style house|Ranch style]] in Ronan and Lake County when it was built in 1950-51". The house, its 1954 addition, and 1952 garage were designed by the architect [[Thomas A. Balzhiser|Thomas Balzhiser]] (the brother-in-law of the house's owner), and as such the garage and addition share the same design features as the house. The house became a model for subsequent residential construction in Ronan such as the Harald Olsson House at 408 Eisenhower, also designed by Balzhiser.<ref name=nrhpdoc>{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=08001325}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Don E.
