The two story wood-frame house was built in 1955 to a design by Edward Durell Stone, an Arkansas native and a leading proponent of new formalism.

The interior of the house is based on Stone's modern reinterpretation of the traditional Arkansas dog trot form, with the central living/dining/kitchen area acting as the central element of that form.

Other rooms of the house connect to this section, and are separated from it by Shōji screens.

The house is largely unchanged since its construction; one chimney has been replaced due to storm damage.
