The house was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.

The Pratt family owned the house until 1975, when the Helen Hayes Pratt, the last one to live in the home, decided to move to another part of town. Burger King bought the property and tore down the outbuildings. Before it could demolish the house, the city decided to buy it back. The Friends of the Pratt House formed around this time.
