St.Johns, Bartra House, Historic Homes, Newfoundland, Canada 11

Description : Bartra House is a two-and-a-half storey Queen Anne style structure located on Circular Road in St. John,s. The designation is confined to the footprint of the building.


The history of Bartra House is quite significant due to its associations with a number of very influential Newfoundland figures. Built in 1905, this house was designed by noted architect William F. Butler. In addition to this house, Butler was also responsible for designing a number of other well-known structures both in and outside of St. John,s including Winterholme, The House and Our Lady of Mercy Church. Originally, this house was constructed to accommodate the family of Walter S. Monroe, a native of Dublin, Ireland. Upon his arrival to Newfoundland in 1888, Monroe worked with his uncle and soon established his own export firm. He later became president of the Imperial Tobacco Company and was the director of several other firms, including Newfoundland Light and Power.
