お洒落な外観やデザインの住宅です!
1890年頃の建築ですが南山手にあったものを、現在地に1974年に移築した住宅です。おしゃれな建物で当時としては珍しいベランダ等も備わっており、憧れの建物だったことが予想できます。グラバー園の中にありますので、是非見学してみたい場所の一つです。
和洋折衷の建物ですね
広いグラバー園の真ん中あたりに、このウォーカー住宅が建っていました。明治時代に大浦天主堂のすぐ隣に建てられたという洋館です。全体の印象は確かに洋風建築なんですが、屋根は瓦ぶきで、和の意匠も取り入れられている和洋折衷的な建物でした。
可愛らしい洋風建築
1890年頃に建築された木造瓦葺平屋の小さな洋館。1974年にグラバー園に移築。 家主のロバート・ウォーカー・ジュニアは英国人船長と日本人妻の次男。昭和に入って日本国籍を取得し、1958年に亡くなるまでこの家に住んでいた。可愛らしい洋風建築で、移築されたとは思えないほど現在地の風景にマッチしている。
