The structure, a two and one-half story house was built in 1795, made of hand made brick laid in Flemish Bond.

The first owner of the structure was George Nace. Mr Nace was one of the leading members of the Haanover Community when it was incorporated as a town in 1815. He was also Hanover's first Mayor. Mr. Nace also was a writer, Justice of the Peace, and a member of State Legistature, elected on the Federalist ticket. His father, Mathias Neas, operated a tanning business, which George helped with.
