"The house was the residence of Wallace A.E. de Beque, a physician who was one of the town’s founders. Constructed in 1889, it is a typical example of a late 19th century wood frame single family dwelling. During his years in residence, de Beque oversaw several additions that nearly doubled its original size. The house appears today much as it did at the time of de Beque’s death in 1930."
