Bowerman House is a two-story residence in Saskatoon combining fieldstone and wood materials with a low-pitched cross-gable roof, broad eaves, and exposed rafter tails. The building at 1328 Avenue K South represents early Western Stick architectural style from the 1900s.
Allan Bowerman, the first postmaster of Saskatoon and town council member from 1903 to 1905, built this residence in 1907 as a hunting lodge. In 1923 the Saskatchewan Anti-Tuberculosis League acquired the property and used it to house sanatorium doctors until 1987.
