Between the two components, it features elements of the Greek Revival and Federal architectural styles. Built of brick, two stories tall, it was originally a farmhouse belonging to John C. Martin, who built his home on property owned by his father-in-law Ezekiel Rigdon, who owned nearly 100 acres of land on Mount Washington near the farm of one of the area's first settlers. ()
