The Buchans
Bungalow
1,280 SQ.FT
The Buchans
Named in honor of the resilient spirit of Central Newfoundland, The Buchans is a thoughtfully designed 1,280 sq. ft. slab-on-grade bungalow that balances modern efficiency with the timeless charm of a New Victorian home. This design pays homage to the historic company town founded in 1927, once a global leader in zinc, lead, and copper mining until 1984. For families like the Griffiths—whose history is rooted in the long commutes from Ship Harbour to work these mines—this home represents a “signature” transition from the rugged industrial past to a refined, single-level retreat.
The exterior features premium siding, a striking gabled roofline, and a welcoming recessed front porch. Inside, the heart of the home is an expansive open-concept living area, where the kitchen—complete with a central island and walk-in pantry—flows seamlessly into the dining and living spaces. The private primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, offering a spacious walk-in closet and a dedicated ensuite. With its practical layout and high-end finishes, The Buchans stands as a gateway to comfort, much like its namesake town serves as the gateway to the scenic Buchans Plateau
