Description du lieu patrimonial
Edward J. Roberts House is a two storey, wooden structure with Queen Anne elements. Located at 035 Water Street, Woody Point, NL, the designation includes the building and surrounding property.
Valeur patrimoniale
Edward J. Roberts House has been municipally designated by the Town of Woody Point for its historic and aesthetic values.
Edward J. Roberts House is historically valuable because of its age and association with the original owner. This house was built for Edward L. Roberts after the fire of 1922 destroyed the house which originally occupied the site. Mr. Roberts was a businessman who owned the Seaside Lunchroom, now the Seabreeze Lounge, which is located across the street from this house, next to the ferry ramp. He also served as the Member of the National Congress and was active with the local public library, which is named in his honour.
Edward J. Roberts House is aesthetically valuable because it is a good example of outport merchant construction. This house is one of two large Queen Anne houses located on the waterfront. It has a hipped roof, pediment with a triangle shaped multi paned window, a small palladian window and a large sun porch.
