Leaskdale Manse, Uxbridge | ||||
Restoration | ||||
The Leaskdale Manse is the former Ontario home of Lucy Maude Montgomery, author of Anne of Green Gables and other children's books. Montgomery wrote eleven of her 22 works here. The house was built in 1886 in the Gothic Revival style. The 1½ storey yellow brick building, originally constructed as a Manse, continued in this capacity until recently, when it became a museum for the famed author as well as a private residence.
The project had a construction
value of $107,000 and was completed in 2003. |
