Built in 1906 by architect William E. Bennis for H. W. Sweet at a cost of $10,000, the house uniquely blended the Queen Anne and Neo-Classical architectural styles, featuring two identical pedimented entrance porticos supported by fluted Composite-order columns, full-length wrap around porches on the first and second stories, and an octagonal corner tower.

The house is located at the corner of Arlington Avenue and 19th Street South.
