The McFarlane House, a distinguished example of Colonial Revival architecture, was constructed in 1896 and is recognized as a Rock Island Landmark since 1994. This exquisite residence showcases typical decorative elements of the style, including a prominent Palladian window and leaded beveled glass sidelights.

Built by Robert McFarlane, a master mason with a significant history at the Rock Island Arsenal, the home remained in the McFarlane family until around 1995. The structure features unique design elements such as rock-faced red sandstone and Tuscan columns, reflecting the architectural elegance of its era.
