The house was built in 1840 by John Fontville, who also built the James B. Jameson House and Oakland in Gallatin.[2] David Chenault, the original owner, was the son of a French immigrant; he lived here with his wife Louisa Quisenberry and their children.[2] Chenault later purchased the Brown-Chenault House, and the Chenaults lived on both farms.[3] Greenfield was inherited by their son Milton in 1883, and it remained in the Chenault family until 1913.[2]

The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 7, 1990.[4]
