The house was built c. 1881–86, and is a well-preserved Queen Anne Victorian on the city's south side. It was home for many years to Henry N. Fisher, who served as city mayor in the late 1880s, and was a foreman at the Waltham Watch Company.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
