The structure is a two-story brick central passage plan house and other architecture. The house was considered notable as an example of brick ante-bellum central passage plan residence. When listed, the property included three contributing buildings and three non-contributing structures on an area of 3.7 acres (1.5 ha).[2]
Denny Porterfield Hadley was born in 1797 and moved to Williamson County in 1808. In 1821, Hadley married Elizabeth Smith, and they were gifted 200 acres of land by her father. Around 1840, the Hadleys hired builder Asa Vaugn to build the house, with most construction materials coming from their farm. During the Civil War, the house was used several times as a campsite by both armies.[2]
The NRHP-eligibility of the property was covered in a 1988 study of Williamson County historical resources.[1]
