The house was built circa 1820, and significantly expanded in the 1850s.[1] It belonged to Samuel P.

Polk, who visited the house many times.[1]
The house remained in the Black family until 1954.[1]
The house was designed in the Italianate and Greek Revival architectural styles.[1] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 5, 1996.[2]
