Only in historic Bridgetown
One of the finest examples of the Second Empire style and one of the most picturesque homes in the Nova Scotia. Leander Stanley Morse, born in 1843, graduated from Acadia University, trained as a lawyer there, in Wolfville, and established a Bridgetown practice. Morse had this impressive home constructed in 1871.
Considered the oldest home in Bridgetown and is an early example of the vernacular tradition. Mariner and shipwright Captain John Quirk, from the Isle of Man, built this house as his marital home in 1812 on one of the Town's first riverfront lots ~ a year after they were laid out.
