It has an L-shaped main section and a rectangular rear addition. The house was built by Walter T. McArthur (1837-1894), who inherited the property in 1877 and developed it as an element of the family's lumber plantation. The property was sold in 1917 to Emory Winship (1872-1932) who used it as a hunting estate.[2]
