History and architectural features

Built circa 1845 as a Post Colonial Greek Revival house, and later updated to a High Victorian Italianate style, this former five-bay 2+12-story structure with a two-story bay window unit with a turret roof and a four-story tower was unusual for the Washington County, Pennsylvania area.[2]

It was designated as a historic residential landmark/farmstead by the Washington County History & Landmarks Foundation,[3] and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]
