The house was built circa 1880 for Ingram Banks Collier III, who served as the mayor of Murfreesboro from 1872 to 1873.[2] A relative, Colonel Newton C. Collier, also served as the mayor and as a director of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway.[3] Two other members of the Collier-Crichlow family served as Murfreesboro's mayor: James H. Crichlow and N. Collier Crichlow.[3]

The house was designed by Confederate veteran and Nashville architect William Crawford Smith in the Second Empire style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 16, 1973.[4]
