Built sometime around the turn of the 20th century, this house was the last residence to be constructed at Sahuaro Ranch. Little is known about who lived in the house, but it appears to have been built as a residence for the employees of William Bartlett, the ranch's first owner. It replaced a much older structure that Bartlett called the 'Men's Quarters'- a simple one-story adobe building that probably dated from the earliest years of the ranch.

Soon after this house was built, the wood-frame section was added to serve as a kitchen. In later years the house was further modified, converting it from a simple bunkhouse into a dwelling more suitable for the ranch foreman and his family. A bathroom was installed on the first floor, the porch was enclosed, and a carport was attached to the north wall of the addition.

More than any other building at Sahuaro Ranch, this house has undergone major changes to restore it to its original appearance. In the 1980s, the carport was removed, the rear stairway rebuilt, and the enclosed porch replaced with a reproduction of the original two-story open porch."
