It was designed by Missoula, Montana architect A.J. Gibson and its construction was supervised by architect John Brechbill for owner Dudley C. Bass. Dudley C. Bass and his brother William Bass, are credited with pioneering the state's fruit industry by their "renowned" 1,000 acres (4.0 km2) Pine Grove (Fruit) Farm, "renowned" in the east as well as the northwest.[2]

It is a two-story frame building with a monumental pedimented portico having six "quasi-Ionic" columns. Two of the columns are engaged and four support the front of the pediment.[2]
