According to a 1989 Historic American Buildings Survey report on the house, "The William W.

Early, an important landowner and developer of the village of Brandywine. William W. Early was the general manager for the Southern Maryland Railroad; this house contained his business office. The family resided in the house until 1949. There were minor changes to the house in 1940 and 1970 for modernization. The William W. Early House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. This Queen Anne style house is roughly square, with a hip-roofed 2+1⁄2-story main block, and asymmetrical gable-roofed extensions, projecting bays, and corner tower, all decorated with fine jigsawn and shingle detail. A two-story octagonal tower forms one corner of the house. The current house with 3,221 square feet of living space is on 3.27 acres. There was an extensive restoration in 2002.
