History via Curbed

Built in 1854, [this] Texas historic landmark [was] officially named the A.J. Nelson-Crier House—though its owners in the 1960s called it Woodbine. According to the Williamson County Historical Commission, the original home, built by the widow and heirs of Swedish immigrant Andrew J. Nelson and designed by Austin's historic and still going strong Page Brothers architecture firm (now called simply Page), was Victorian in style. In the 1930s, heirs had the facade converted to a Greek or Classical Revival style. It had several subsequent remodels, including one in the 1960s in which four screened porches were converted to rooms.
