The house consists of a Plantation plain-style house built around 1870, plus a hall-parlor house from the 1850s, joined by an enclosed walkway. It was built to serve as a home for Albert Neal and Eliza Brinson Durden and, up to 1990 had been lived in by descendants. Along with outbuildings, it is on a 162 acres (66 ha) property which was the heart of a larger plantation.[2] The older house was moved to its present location and the newer one was built in front of it.[2]

It is located in a rural area on the old Swainsboro Road (County Road 360) about 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Twin City.[2]
