Description
The Carmichael House is a one and one-half storey, wood-frame Craftsman Bungalow, located in the Chilliwack Proper neighbourhood, close to downtown Chilliwack. The historic place includes the house.
Valeur patrimoniale
This site holds historical and aesthetic value.
It is historically important though its association with early owners who were prominent community members. The first owner of the house was F. Maude Carmichael, the daughter of Chilliwack's first mayor (Sam Cawley). Later, from the 1920s to the 1940s it was owned by the Brice family. The elder Brice was a municipal clerk and his two sons served and died in World War 2.
The site holds aesthetic value as an early 20th-century residence located adjacent to downtown Chilliwack and an example of Craftsman-style architecture.
