This two-storey brick and Tyndall stone trimmed house on Selkirk Avenue in Winnipeg, on the former site of St. Peter’s Anglican Church, measures 35 feet by 36 feet. It was built in 1941 by contractor Ludwig Rodinski, with sewer and plumbing subcontracted to Alex Weber, at a cost of about $9,000, for owner/doctor Francis Adam “Frank” Rybak.
At the time of a 2025 site visit, the house was relatively unmodified from its original appearance.
