It is a two-story, framed Late Victorian style residence built between c. 1877 – c. 1880.[2] It is considered a good example of local architecture and still maintains the "Vicksburg pierced columns" on the exterior.[2] Tours of the home are sometimes available, and has been part of the annual Vicksburg Pilgrimage in the autumn.[3] The residence was once owned by the Vick family, the namesake for the city of Vicksburg.[3]
