The Villa Frederick James in Perce is one of the most photographed houses in Canada. It was built in 1900 by the Philadelphia artist Frederick James whose first trip to Perce was in 1880.
Like so many other artists, he found something compelling, about the breathtaking landscapes and he fell under the spell of the sea and the small fishing village of Perce. 
His beautiful mansion up on Cap Canon overlooks Perce Rock and has inspired millions of visitors from all over the world for many reasons.

But it is more than just a house... it is a forgotten love story!
