The Lewis S. Hills House at 425 East 100 South in Salt Lake City, Utah is a Classical Revival style house that was built c. 1905. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

The house is significant for its association with Lewis S. Hills, a financier who, among other activities, served as bank president of Deseret National Bank. This house "represents the zenith of Hills' career, having been constructed while he was bank president", and was his home until his 1915 death. Two other houses in Salt Lake City and the area, including the NRHP-listed Lewis S. Hills House (126 S. 200 West), also are associated with Hills. The 425 East 100 South house is also significant architecturally as "an excellent local example of the Victorian Eclectic style and as one of the few remaining houses in this East First South neighborhood, which was a fashionable residential area during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries."

The listing included two contributing buildings.
