Originally built in 1851 in a South Carolina Lowcountry vernacular style of architecture, the house was seriously damaged by a tornado on April 30, 1924, and was rebuilt so that it now appears as a "raised cottage with a Prairie or Craftsman roof."[2][3]
The plantation house's main axis runs NW-SE, with the façade on the SE face.[4]
