David L. Lilienfeld was born in 1836 in Hanover, Germany. He arrived in Kalamazoo In 1859 and started cigar making and wholesale liquor businesses with his brother William. He became a prominent member of the Kalamazoo business community. [3] In 1867, Lilienfeld purchased a lot and small home on this site for his family. In 1878, he moved the previous house to another lot and built the current structure to replace the earlier house. Lilienfeld lived there until his death in 1899. [4]
The house was owned by a number of owners for the next few decades, until 1932 when John Donovan began leasing it for use as a funeral parlor. At some point the original square tower fronting the house was removed. It remained a funeral home until 1985, when Louis and Annette Conti purchased the home, saving it from planned demolition and carefully restoring it. They turned it into an inn and restaurant, adding a commercial kitchen in the 1990s, before having financial difficulties. The house was vacant for a time in the early 2000s, and was further restored and opened as a bed & breakfast in 2007. [4]
