The house is a two-story Creole plantation house built in c.1814 by Jean Baptiste Thibodaux, who purchased the land parcel in 1810. The house was originally formed by four rooms. A two-story side wing was added at some time and, in the 1880s, a two-story rear wing containing a carriage area was also added to the building. The rear wing was deeply altered in 1956.^[2][3]
