It was listed on the National Register in 1982. [1] According to its NRHP nomination, the house was deemed locally significant architecturally "as an example of a vernacular Neo-Classical Revival dwelling, based upon earlier upright-with-wing or templeform houses common to the Greek Revival style in the eastern and midwestern states" and for association with F. M. Walcott, a county attorney and county judge who had one of the largest legal practices in Nebraska. [2]

The vacant property was bought by Walcott in 1892 for $137.50 and the house was built that year. [2]

It is now the Walcott Inn. [3]
