Zillow claims the house was built in 1912, but it is definietly older than that, as it appears in the 1910 census.

In 1942, Sloan & Lynch, on behalf of the Lowdens, sold the home to Wilton White and his wife for $8,500. Wilton died in 1949, and their son Robert Gregory White was attending Drexel University for a degree in mechanical engineering.

In 1951, the residence was home to Robert H. Carruthers, which means that Helen had likely moved by that time. In 1957, Harold Darnell lived there. In 1980, Ewen Cameron, who originally resided at 311 Davis Road, purchased the home for $59,000, and he sold the home to Geoffrey Aguirre and Isolde Baylor for $265,000. The house sold again in 2011 for $410,000.
