This two-storey brick house on Balmoral Street in Winnipeg was designed and built in 1904 by the firm of Andrews and Son for Margaret Armstrong Loughrin (1840-1919), widow of William Bathgate. She lived in the house until her death when the property was sold to Elizabeth L. McGreet. Later occupants included a series of short-term owners until the 1950s when prospector John Donner and his wife purchased it, living here into the 1990s.
