In 1801, it was purchased by Enoch Dauge who lived here with his wife, Margaret Etheridge. Dauge subsequently changed his name to Dozier. He owned slaves. He built a loghouse, which burnt down in 1840.

The current house was built from 1840 to 1842. When Dozier died in 1842, it was inherited by his heirs, who eventually sold it in 1932. Five years later, in 1937, it was purchased by George Hobbs. It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 1, 1990.{{cite web|title=Dozier Farm|url=https://npgallery.nps.gov/AssetDetail/NRIS/90001580|website=National Park Service|access-date=August 23, 2016}}
