This 2½-storey dark red brick, Tyndall Stone trimmed, and half timbered and stucco, Tudor Revival-style house is on Bannerman Avenue in Winnipeg. Measuring 26 feet by 28 feet, and 8 feet by 18 feet, it was designed and built in 1912 by contractor William Horner at a cost of about $7,000, for owners Archibald E. White and William P. White. It was kept by Archibald, the manager at the W. H. Stone grocery store located in Stone's Hall.
At the time of a 2017 and 2022 site visits, the house was relatively unmodified from its original appearance but its original front porch has been removed.
