Harry G. Woodhouse (1865-1918), a former conductor with Souther Pacific Railway, completed this house for his family in 1910. While living in Victoria, he became a successful farmer and served several terms on the city council. Interesting features of the home, which remained in the Woodhouse family for seventy years, include the Classical pediment and Queen Anne porch with Doric piers on the first floor and Ionic columns above.
