Inn Details
Located within walking distance of shops and attractions, WISE MANOR is one of the oldest BED & BREAKFAST homes in HISTORIC JEFFERSON, TEXAS. Built in 1851 on the ferry road into pre-CIVIL WAR JEFFERSON, the home has been in the WISE family since 1908. JACOB & ERNESTINE STERNE, early Jefferson postmasters were distinguished residents. GENERAL BUELL was a guest during the RECONSTRUCION ERA. WISE MANOR was lovingly restored by KATHEREINE RAMSAY WISE, Jefferson's town HISTORIAN. Furnished in VICTORIAN era ANTIQUES and family HEIRLOOMS, WISE MANOR reminds us of a time when life was simpler and entertaining was gracious.
