Built in 1891 for E. M. Reynolds, a banker from New York, the house is evidence of the craftsmanship of local builder Richard Grosse.
The asymmetrical sandstone mansion was further improved by its next owner, Oscar Seaquist, a Swedish bootmaker who came to Texas and eventually acquired the property in 1919.
Featuring wrap-around porches, gables, turrets, alcoves, scroll-work, stained glass and towers, the house is pure architectural fantasy.
