It was built about 1827, and is a 2 1/2-story, five-bay, Greek Revival style stone dwelling. It has a 1 1/2-story east wing and two-story west wing in the Colonial Revival style added about 1940. It sits on an English basement, and gable roof and interior end chimneys. The front facade features a three-bay, one-story, gable-roofed portico with a pedimented gable, and the rear facade has a full-length, five-bay, two-story portico with large Doric order columns. The property was converted to a golf club about 1970.[3]
