The 1+1/2-story Cape style house was built in 1799 by Barzillai Weeks. The house was the center of a local farm for over 150 years, most of them under the ownership of Weeks' descendants. The house has well-preserved Federal styling, most prominent in the five-pane transom window over the main entrance.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 13, 1987.
