Built in 1797, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 3, 1973, for its significance in architecture and health/medicine.[2] In 1937, the Woman's Club of Morristown purchased the house for its headquarters.[3] The house was added as a contributing property to the Morristown District on October 30, 1973.[4]
