The mansion was completed in 1869.[2] It was designed in the Italianate architectural style.[2] It was built for John Woodard, who served in the Tennessee House of Representatives.[2] He gifted the mansion to his son, Albert G. Woodard, in 1889.[2] By 1938, the property was sold to J.W. Helm. By the 1980s, it belonged to Robert Brown, Jr.[2]

It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 25, 1982.[3]
