The house was built in 1846 by Jacques Godfroy, who acquired the land from a government grant. While the house was built by Godfroy, it is unknown if he ever actually lived in the house. He sold the house to his business partner Rudolph Nims in 1848.

The Nims family owned the house for over a hundred years before selling it. It remains privately owned. [2]
