According to Cebu City Tourism, Fr William Repetti, S.J., a seismologist and archivist of the Jesuits, identified this old structure as the “Jesuit House of 1730” and pictures of his visit hang on its walls today. Fr Repetti noted the existence of the house in his book published in 1936.
However, restoration works carried out by the team of Architect Anthony Abelgas in 2010 prove that it could even be older than that.
A coin, for example, which dates back to the Ming Dynasty found buried in a post of the original house has given the clue that it has gone through periods of transformation and that it was originally owned by a Chinese family who was one of the early settlers in the Parian district.
Moreover, the house is coral stone from ground to the second floor. Abelgas pointed out that during the Spanish governance, this practice was not anymore allowed.
