Jacob Haldi and his wife Jessie purchased one acre in 1901 on this site along the Bedford Channel and Glover Road. The couple gave local carpenter Billy Brown $10,000 in 1908 to build a three story home beside their butcher shop (in the old Hudson's Bay Company Store building on the site). The home was completed in about 1910, and the original interior featured a French polish finish on the woodwork. The exterior featured a wrap around verandah, numerous bay windows and a hip roof with hip-roofed dormer windows. Alterations by 1957 included a large wrap around porch addition at ground level. It later operated as the Bedford House Restaurant (from approx. 1977 - 2005).
