The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1975 and is situated south of Millett Field.

The log cabin home, built with mortise and tenon joinery, is considered either 1+1⁄2 or two stories and at its initial construction, contained 8 rooms.

Due to age and numerous restorations and additions, the residence contains little of its early details though the exterior walls and some foundational support remain.

[11][8] Due to its age and renovations since its construction, the home retains little of its original build, but the exterior walls and some floor support remains intact.

[1] The home is considered the oldest structure in Lewis County[2][6] and the longest continuously occupied residence in the state.
