Description
Originally, the Captain Howes House, this beautiful historic home was built in 1849 by Captain Frederick Howes (1812 - 1882). Recently, it was listed on the National Historic Register. The Howes House is one of the finest examples of Gothic Revival architecture in Yarmouth: steeply pitched roof, gabled front end, two widows walks, two side porches (now enclosed) and distinctive ''gingerbread'' on the bargeboards and eaves encircling the house. The building is a post & beam frame on a block granite foundation and still has its original plastered walls and ceilings, wide pine flooring, spiral staircase, fireplace, large door window and french doors. The proprietors felt a strong sense of care in maintaining as much of the original structure as possible when renovating the beautiful old home and turning it into a Cape Cod Cafe. Property has also been used as a B&B/Inn.
