The owners, Phillip and Catherine Jewell believe that the Italianate structure was built between 1840 and 1850. Six years of restoration has turned the former home into a coffee house that is elegant by any standard. All of rooms in the home feature 12 foot ceilings, unique, beautiful, turn of the century chandeliers, and furnishings that are seldom seen in a coffee house. All of the tables and cabinets were built with lumber that was harvested from the property. This includes solid black walnut table tops, hard maple legs and aprons with black walnut inlay. Due to the beauty of the home, catering has added an additional source of revenue. Customers have booked dinner parties and many other special events that impress guests with the elegant surroundings.
