Though we have no original interior photos of Chez Nous, we do have original architectural features still in place. Including the beautiful 3 pane stained glass window in the library. Also in the library, the original fireplace mantel inscribed for Mary and Celia, the two sisters who built Chez Nous, with green Italian tile surround. The inscription reads: NOTRE PETIT COINS EST SI DOUX, POUR VIVRE HEUREUX RESTONS CHEZ NOUS. From their heart, no doubt, translates to: “Our little corner is so sweet, to live happily, let’s stay home.” It is amazing these features are still here more than 125 years later!
