History

This house originally formed part of a larger building at 29 Navy Street known as the "Frontier House Hotel". The hotel, which was made from an older house built in 1838, operated from 1853-1860 at which time it was converted back to a dwelling. It was split and moved to the present site in 1906 after which the rear addition and decorative verandah were built.

What the status means

Inside a heritage conservation district designated under Part V. The district plan governs exterior changes visible from the street; the building itself is not individually designated.

Whether a specific alteration needs a heritage permit is the Town’s call; ask its heritage planning staff before starting work. See permits and by-laws.
