Inscription. Constructed c. 1894, the house is a good example of a wood frame Victorian Queen Anne style dwelling. The form is asymmetrical and major features include gable-end projections and a pyramidal turret. The home was built by William Toombs, a native of Northampton, England. He was employed as a roadmaster on a division of the Utah & Northern and Oregon Short Line Railroad. He spent the later years of his life as a rancher in northern Utah. The home retains its historic and architectural integrity and is an important contribution to Logan City's Center Street Historic District.

Erected 2009 by Utah Division of State History.
