104 North Champlain Street is a one and one-half-story, gable-front, wood frame building on the west side of North Champlain Street between Peru and North Streets. The ell was either original or was added before 1894,¹ and an extant outbuilding was constructed between 1926 and 1942.²

The building was constructed between 1853 and 1869, and was home to the Nolan family as early as 1865.³ The Nolans retained the building, sometimes living in it and sometimes renting it, until 1922.⁴ Tenants in 1903 included Joseph Moran, a teamster, and Henry Bowley, an employee of Rutland Railroad.⁵ In the 1930s and 1940s, the house was home to occupants such as Arthur Morris, a truck driver, and Eugene F. Perras, an employee of Yandow Tire.⁶
