The palatial Victorian mansion is located on a knoll in the middle of town.

William and Emma (née Gilham) Page raised their four children there, attended by a staff of 8 servants.

Architect William Minter designed the house in a Gothic style.

[2] The exterior features 52 8-foot-tall windows[3][4] According to author and railroad historian H. Reid in his book The Virginian Railway (Kalmbach, 1961), it was in this mansion that Page developed the plans for the coal-hauling Virginian Railway, which was financed by industrialist Henry Huddleston Rogers and became the "Richest Little Railroad in the World" after its completion in 1909.

It underwent a ground up restoration in 2007 by Jim and Debbie Campbell who are the current owners.
