It was built in 1888 by Bloch Brothers (Distillers) who also built the distillery. The house was provided by the distiller for the Excise Officer and his family. Over the years various people have visited having had parents, grandparents or a relative who had lived here. A visitor from New Zealand said that his grand father was the first Excise Officer at Scapa Distillery. Three Orcadian Excise Officers have lived here.
In 1982 Ida and Balfour and their Daughter Dawn bought Scapa House from Hiram Walker & Sons who owned it at that time.
