Built in 1904 by William A. Dinker, it is one of the oldest early 20th-century summer cottages in the community.

Between 1922 and 1925 it served as the community post office, and is the only public-use building from that era to survive.

It has twice been moved, once over a property dispute, and in 2007 due to road works.

[2] The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.
