Description

The Calbick House is a modest one-and-one-half storey Queen Anne cottage located in the historic Queen’s Park neighbourhood of New Westminster. The house features asymmetrical massing, a simple hipped roof and a bay window on its front elevation.

Valeur patrimoniale

Built in circa 1896, the Calbick House is significant for its historic value, in particular for its longevity and adaptability over time.

The house is a good example of a Queen Anne style home, and although it has been altered over time to reflect the needs of its owners, it retains the essential Queen Anne elements of massing, asymmetry and such design details as a projecting bay and partial-width verandah.

Furthermore, the house is valued for its association with its first owner, John Alloway Calbick (1838-1918), who was a constable at the Provincial Jail, and his wife, Lydia Ann (nee Church).
