It was built with Italianate style and was remodelled in Classical Revival in the early 20th century. It has a two-story pedimented portico with paired two-story columns on masonry piers.[2]

The house was home of Thomas M. O'Connor, a banker who accumulated ranch holdings of over 500,000 acres (200,000 ha) in years following the American Civil War. In 1983 the house still belonged to the prominent O'Connor family.[2]

It was listed on the NRHP as part of a study which listed numerous historic resources in the Victoria area.[3]
