Harrington Lake, Summer residence of Prime Minister in Pontiac, Canada
The colonial revival residence features wooden frame construction with vertical boards, stone chimney, dormer windows, and two flanking entrance porches.
Cameron Macpherson Edwards, a timber baron from Ottawa, constructed the main building in 1925 before the property became a federal estate in 1951.
The location serves as both a retreat space and a strategic meeting point where Canadian leaders conduct informal governmental discussions.
The National Capital Commission manages this federal heritage property, which includes a caretaker residence, barn, and tractor shed within its grounds.
The barn incorporates experimental prefabricated concrete panels, representing an early attempt to introduce this construction method to Ontario and Quebec markets.
