The house is notable as being the home of sculptor Cyrus E. Dallin (1861–1944) from 1899 until his death.

It is a Colonial Revival/Shingle style 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof studded with dormers, and a front porch supported by Tuscan columns.

Dallin's studio, no longer extant, stood in the rear of the property.

Dallin was one of Arlington's most well-known citizens of the early 20th century, and his sculptures are found in several public settings around the town.
