Baldwin (1854–1919) was a leading banker during Central Oregon's prosperous first decades of the 20th century. He lived in this 1907 Colonial Revival house through the height of his career. The house, designed by the firm of prominent architect John V. Bennes, is the finest house of its style in Prineville.[7]

Its dignified American Renaissance styling reflects the prosperity of the bank, city, and county. It was the first of three prominent buildings whose use of native basalt from the same quarry lends a distinctive feel to central Prineville.[9]
