The original 1817 house was converted in 1855 to the "villa style" then popular in America, incorporating a combination of Italianate and Gothic architecture elements. Reflecting this is a brick tower and an adjoining gable end projection. In 1857, a 3 12-story wing was added. "Trevanion" is a family name and a term meaning "the meeting of streams" in Welsh.
