One of the early structures (lot 32) built in the Gimghoul-Piney Prospect Development. This one-story dwelling was built in 1924 for Ralph M. and Hazel Trimble by local contractor Charlie Lee Martindale. Ralph Trimble was a professor in the School of Engineering at UNC and surveyed many properties in Chapel Hill, including the original Gimghoul subdivision.

The house was demolished in 1987. A new house was built on the property in 1993.
