The house stands at 120 Dickman Drive Southeast in Ruskin, Hillsborough County, Florida. It is a private residence, so visitors see it from the street; the former bed and breakfast operation has reportedly closed.
The entire structure was built from heart pine, a dense material from the core of pine trees that rarely survives completely in historic Florida buildings. This material choice allowed the house to endure over a century and offers today a rare example of early settler craftsmanship and available resources.
