The Grange was built in 1902 by Lucy C. Carnegie as a residence for her estate manager William E. Page and his wife Eleanor. Prior to the construction, the Pages had been living at Dungeness in the first floor bedroom. The first and second floor has approximately 7,000 square feet, plus additional attic and basement areas.
Located in the heart of the Dungeness Historic District between The Carriage House and the ruined Pool House, the Georgian-styled house rests on a flared brick foundation and has a hipped shaped roof. Not originally designed but added years later are hipped dormers and a crude cupola giving access to the rooftop. Roughly sixty by fifty seven feet, an exterior stuccoed finish covers the wood framed two-story five bay house.
The Grange is listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and the NPS List of Classified Structures (LCS).
