The Sirrine House was built in 1896 by Joel E. Sirrine for his new bride, Caroline Simkins Sirrine. In February 1986, the Sirrine Historic House Museum was opened to the public. This was the culmination of six years of community support, both in time and money, to preserve this part of Mesa's history. The City of Mesa, with the help of the Mesa Historical and Archaeological Society and many other groups and individuals, was instrumental in the success of the restoration project.
The Mesa Southwest Museum and the Southwest Archaeology Team began a research study of the home in order to make the restoration as accurate as possible. Many years and occupants meant that walls had been painted and repainted. Only after this intensive study had been completed was the restoration work begun.
