Andrew Bell (1819-1908) came from Scotland and purchased 200 acres along the Mill River. He became a prominent farmer and shipbuilder in the area, constructing twenty vessels at his Mill River shipyard.

His son, John (Jack) Bell (1864-1956) left for the United States, but later returned to the area and constructed the current house in 1911. The builder was Neil MacDonald. In 1938, Jack's son, Arthur Sutherland Bell (1907-1978) took over the farm in 1938. The property remained in the Bell family until the late 1990s, when the Gard family purchased it.
