Itinayo noong panahon ng Gold Coast, ang "Apple Trees" ay sumasalamin sa kagandahan ng panahon kung kailan ang mga mayayamang negosyante mula sa New York City ay nagsisilakbo patungong hilagang baybayin ng Long Island para bumuo ng kanilang mga tahanan. Sa mga nakamamanghang elementong arkitektural, matataas na kisame, may mga bintanang may mullion at malalaki at mahusay na sukat na mga silid, ang tahanan ay isang kilalang alaala ng tanyag na panahong iyon. Matatagpuan sa higit sa 14 ektarya na may mahaba at paikot-ikot na daan, ang tahanan ay itinayo bilang regalo para sa kasal ni Junius Spencer Morgan, anak ng financier na si J.P. Morgan. Ang Tudor Revival estate na dinisenyo ng arkitektong si Roger H. Bullard, ay may klasikong panlabas na gawa sa stucco na may ornamental brickwork, gables, at bubong na gawa sa slate.
