The house was built for Thomas A. Berry (1852-1922) and his wife, Mary Elizabeth Bass (1861-1945), as a wedding gift by her father in 1882.[3]

The home's architectural style is considered Late Victorian.[1] It was deemed significant as "a home built in the Victorian Eclectic style that retains its original setting, appearance, similar landscaping, and most significant exterior and interior features....one of a handful of Victorian-era homes that remain in an area that was an affluent section of Dalton during that period." Indicative features of the architectural style include: the house's wraparound porch, decorative brackets on the eaves and the porch, the bay window, stained glass, and interior mantels.[3]
