Messrs Hackley and Hume were partners in a lumber business in the late 19th century. They built Queen Anne style houses next door to each other and shared a carriage house. Hackley House has three stories, with a tower in one corner. The turreted roof has many angles and the windows vary in shape and size.

The interior is richly decorated with wooden trim, carvings and spindles. Hume House has a corner entrance with a turret overhead. The second floor is cantilevered, in part, over the first. The exterior is painted in 14 different colors. In 2017, both houses were restored and opened to the public.
