The main block of this 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built in 1814 by Joseph Wilson, a farmer.

It was occupied for most of the nineteenth century by his son, Israel Wilson, and it remained in the family's ownership until 1917.

[2] Architectural historian William Jordy noted that it was "very grand" for its rural location.

The Winslows named the property Windy Parks Farm and hired architect Edwin E. Cull to extend and modernize the house.
