The Evan F. Ellis Farmhouse is an historic residence located north of Bussey, Iowa, United States.

After Evan's (1949) and Bertha's (1959) deaths, their daughter Mary continued to live in the house and run the farm until her death in 1974. While the family continued to own the farm, the house was rented to tenants until 1983 when Bonnie Vanderlinden Noah, Evan and Bertha's granddaughter, and her husband Jack began restoring the house for them to live in. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. (en)
