Morrow House
Morrow House is a charming heritage home located at 232 Colborne Street in Port Stanley, Ontario. The house features classic late Victorian residential architecture with a steeply pitched roof, bay windows, ornate wood trim, and a welcoming front porch. Mature trees and a well-tended garden frame the property, giving it a warm and inviting presence on this quiet street.
The house was built in the late 19th century, around the same time as many prominent homes in the area. While specific records of the original owner are limited, Morrow House is included in the village’s local heritage walking tour, highlighting its strong connection to early community development and its representation of traditional residential design.
Over the years, Morrow House has remained a private residence, yet it retains its historical character through careful maintenance and restoration. Many of the original features such as wood siding, decorative trim, and multi-paned windows have been preserved. This combination of historical authenticity and residential charm makes the house stand out as an excellent example of its time.
Morrow House is part of Port Stanley’s heritage walking tour. During scheduled events, the property may be opened for visitors to view displays or speak with local guides. Outside of these times, the house remains a private home and is not open to the public. However, it can be freely admired from the sidewalk, and it contributes greatly to the historic character of the neighborhood.
Smoking is not permitted on the property under Ontario public health regulations. Visitors are asked to respect this policy and, if they wish to smoke, to do so away from entrances and neighboring homes.
