The beautiful architecture of the Locke Homestead in the town of Lockeport, Nova Scotia, towers over the manicured landscape where a display of colorful lawn furniture sits. Constructed in 1876 for Captain Henry Locke, it was later purchased in 1892 by a cousin named Churchill Locke and the house is now owned by a direct descendant of this man.
This house is done in a Victorian design and is the Second Empire style with its mansard roof and 3 bay evenly proportioned facade. The Locke Homestead looks out over the beauty of Lockeport Harbour where the main industry in the town is fishing.
When visiting Lockeport, Nova Scotia, be sure to tour The Locke Family Streetscape which includes five historic homes which all belonged to the Locke Family. This area was Nova Scotia's 1st provincially registered streetscape and the well preserved homes display the architectural beauty of three eras of architecture, Colonial, Georgian and Victorian.
The Locke Homestead built in 1876, with colourful wooden outdoor furniture on the lawn, in Nova Scotia's first Provincially Registered Streetscape in the town of Lockeport, Highway 3, Lighthouse Route, Nova Scotia, Canada.
