It was built about 1847, and is a two-story, three bay brick residence in the Greek Revival style. It has a low hipped roof. Also on the property are a contributing blacksmith shop/shed, a smokehouse, and a frame shed. It was the home of George Washington Sullivan, Sr., (1809–1887), a prominent farmer and public servant of Laurens District before, during, and after the American Civil War.

The 1849 last will and testament of Joseph Sullivan bequeathed “one tract of land, suppose [sic] to contain four hundred acres including the Hickory Tavern” to his minor son, Milton A. Sullivan. George W. Sullivan was named as the trustee “until my son Milton A arrives of age.”

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.
