The Bevier House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Hurley Historic District. The description of the house notes that “judging from changes in the masonry this building was probably constructed in three sections. It is now a 5-bay house with irregular fenestration. The gable ends are clapboarded. Alterations include a 19th century center cross gable with fishtail shingles, doorway and 2/2 sash, plus an early 20th century cobblestone porch on the southeast side.”
