History
The mansion was built in 1806 by Chen's family as their first house when they immigrated from Anxi County, Fujian.

Architecture
The mansion was constructed from local stones with fir wood and bricks shipped from Mainland China. A waterwheel attached to one of the exterior walls was decorated with clay moldings. The original layout of the mansion was a traditional three-sectioned structure with left and right wings. Those two wings have since collapsed and no longer exist.
