The villa is now a museum commemorating Dr Sun Yat Sen who visited Singapore eight times between 1900 and 1911.The villa is believed to have been built by businessman Boey Chuan Poh in 1880 to house his mistress, Bin Chan, from whom came the building's original name, Bin Chan House.In 1905, the villa was bought by rubber magnate Teo Eng Hock great-granduncle of Minister for Defence Teo Chee Hean from a timber merchant for his aged mother, Mdm Tan Poh Neo. A fervent supporter of the Chinese revolution movement to overthrow the Qing dynasty in China, Teo Eng Hock later offered the place as the Singapore branch of the Tong Meng Hui, or the Chinese Revolutionary Alliance, to Dr Sun Yat Sen for his revolutionary activities in February 1906 until the successful Xinhai Revolution in 1911. Tong Meng Hui was formed to help drum up support and raisemoney for the revolution. The villa later became the alliance's Southeast Asia headquarters.
