Description du lieu patrimonial
The Burnham Road Residence is a one and one-half storey, stucco-clad Craftsman style building located, close to the oceanfront, in a residential neighbourhood in Qualicum Beach. The historic place is confined to the building footprint.
Valeur patrimoniale
Built in the 1920s, the Burnham Road Residence is an excellent example of a Craftsman style building, a style very popular on the West Coast in the first part of the 20th century. The building’s horizontal massing, picturesque roofline and front verandah with decorative columns are all typical elements of this style.
The Burnham Road Residence’s setting, within a grouping of superior historic buildings in a leafy, residential neighbourhood, reinforces the community’s overall genteel character.
