Description

The Hezikiah House is a two-storey, steeply pitched gable roofed house located in Woody Point, Bonne Bay. The designation is confined to the footprint of the building.

Valeur patrimoniale

The Hezikiah House has been designated a Registered Heritage Structure because of its architectural value.

The Hezikiah House is architecturally interesting because it typifies the traditional style of home built throughout Newfoundland during the late 19th century. This style of house was common among the early inhabitants of the region because of its basic design and traditional elements. Narrow wooden clapboard and a wooden shore foundation reflect the use of local materials. The steeply pitched gable roof features a central front peak, typical of the 19th century houses in the area. Simple design elements in combination with symmetrical window placement result in a neat and traditional façade.
