When I was a kid, I used to come into this building for penny candy 🍭 I had no idea that one day I’d be the one restoring it.

The house was built in 1780. John Thoreau (Henry’s father) ran a shop and lived here until 1850. Later it became the F.H. Trumbull Country Store — and the original sign still hangs inside (see first and last slides!)

When we restored it, we took it down to the studs. We kept the wavy-glass windows and ceiling beams, and put in (new, but old) 15” yellow pine floors and rebuilt the fireplaces from the original chimney bricks. I love that every time someone sits down to dinner here, they’re part of a really long line of people who’ve gathered in these rooms.

Did anyone else come here for candy back in the day? Tell me below 👇✨

The House was bursting at the seams this weekend with a series of special events. It couldn’t have made us happier to have played a small role in a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception, a cozy harvest birthday dinner, and a bustling cocktail party social for a local school.

Our team is taking a little breather today and feeling very grateful for our amazing clients and friends 🍁✨🍂

Actively booking end of year planning meetings at the House 🍂✨

Our board room seats 12 – big enough for a full board, small enough that everyone’s actually in the conversation. Wavy glass windows, coffee on, phones (mostly) down.

When the work is done, everyone moves downstairs for drinks and sits down to dinner at a long table in the downstairs gallery. It turns a day of decisions into something people look forward to. One client recently told us that they were “thrilled with the opportunity to get out of the office and have everything all in one spot“- I hear that a lot 🤍

If your board or a leadership team is planning a year-end meeting, or a January kickoff, we’d love to have you. Reach out anytime at [email protected]🥂

Spent the day digging into all of the fall events on the lineup at 1780 House — weddings, dinners, birthday parties, and so many celebrations. So many cozy evenings in the House ahead, with good food and plenty of good w**e. 🍷🍂

Our fall calendar is filling in, but we still have a few dates open. If you’ve been thinking about gathering your people around the table this season, we’d love to have you.

Fall at 1780 House is my absolute favorite.

Nothing says summer quite like salt air and endless blue
horizons. Bring the feeling home with our collection of coastal artwork, available through the 1780 House online Gallery—a perfect reminder of slow, summer beach days
that never seem to last long enough.

Learn more about our gallery and artwork at the link in bio.

Summer at 1780 House has settled into a nice rhythm.

The calendar is full of weddings, board meetings, school leadership retreats, celebrations of life, and the kinds of gatherings that keep us connected to the moments that matter most to the incredible people in our community.

In between, our team is taking a little time, too—traveling through Europe, welcoming new babies, sending kids off to college, sitting by the ocean, and enjoying summer while it lasts.

We’ll be back into the full swing of the fall before we know it. Until then, we’re soaking up every bit of this season.

Scenes from the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in London a few weeks ago. If you haven’t heard of it - it’s the Super Bowl for flower lovers where gardens, ch*****ne, fashion, Pimm’s, music, and people-watching take over London for a magical, crowded, and creative week. (Highlights including a completely unexpected meeting over Pimm’s with the insanely fun and talented painter Michael F Rumsby who was there to celebrate his show in Chelsea 🥂His work is gorgeous - check him out). This year’s theme was “out of this world” and it was complete heaven ✨🌷🥂. Till next year…

Today is the last day the gallery will be open to the public until the fall, so if you’ve been meaning to stop by, today is the day!

While the gallery will move to online and by-appointment-only visits for June, July, and August, 1780 House will remain open all summer long for private events, dinners, meetings, celebrations, and gatherings. Keep those inquiries coming ✨

Please note that we’re closing early today for a very exciting private event, so gallery hours will be 11:00 AM–3:00 PM.

Come say hello, browse the artwork, and enjoy one last gallery visit before summer mode begins.
