The Sooley family has owned land in Heart's Delight, Newfoundland since the 1860s. In the 1950s, many Newfoundlanders moved away for work, including Ken and Sharon's father Fred. However, the siblings were determined to preserve their family home and heritage. They renovated their grandfather's original house, keeping historic details while making modest updates. Ken and Sharon now offer the house as part of their cultural tourism business, CapeRace Cultural Adventures, giving visitors an authentic taste of Newfoundland life and history.

3. The Sooleys settled in heart’s delight in the
1860s, and since then new generations have
kept the family’s traditions and heritage alive

4. newfoundland has legendary
status in Canada: that far-flung
outpost at the eastern end of our
country harbours a rich history,
stark landscapes, and arguably,
the strongest sense of regional
pride. It’s no wonder, then, that
the Sooley family, whose roots
go deep in this province, can’t
help but return year after year
to a little Newfoundland town
aptly named Heart’s Delight.
An hour and 15 minutes from
St. John’s, this tiny ‘outport’
has been home to Sooleys since
the 1860s, when John Bishop
Sooley, great-great-grandfather
to siblings—and the current
owners—Ken and Sharon,
bought five acres overlooking
Trinity Bay on the north
Atlantic. When the land passed
down to his grandson, Edward
John Sooley, the family built
a house on the property culled
from the remnants of two nearby
buildings. “My father took them
apart himself,” recalls Fred
Sooley, Ken and Sharon’s father.
“One was on the other side of
the harbour, and the other was
pulled 500 yards by horse to be
the foundation for our house.”
Like many other young and able
Newfoundlanders, Fred moved
to Ontario in the 1950s to seek
employment, but continued to
summer in Heart’s Delight with
his family until his mother
passed away in 1984. A decade
later, the house was in disrepair,
and Fred was ready to sell—
until Ken and Sharon stepped
in. Not willing to see their
memories and heritage be
passed along, the two embarked

on a new chapter in Sooley
history, one that gives others
the Newfoundland experience
brother and sister cherished.
Thus CapeRace Cultural
Adventures was born, an
inventive 10-day touring pro
gram of Newfoundland that lets
visitors explore the unique
characteristics of the province
by staying in homes owned by
the Sooley family. “Usually when
you travel Newfoundland,” says
Ken, a prolific adventurer,
“you see a lot of nature, but the
cultural experience doesn’t have
the level of depth many people
would like.” To date, the Sooleys
have purchased and restored the
three homes on the tour (look
for their St. John’s property
in our September 2008 issue).
“The incredible thing about
Newfoundland is its sense of
community,” adds Sharon.

In Newfoundland, where kitchen parties originated, the pantry is where food is prepared, while the
kitchen proper is almost exclusively confined to family and friendly gatherings. Underneath that cheery
tablecloth (opposite) lies a workbench that still bears the marks of Edward John’s chopping—as a
young man, Fred added arborite and chrome to its top to replace the wood.

7. While the turquoise and watery shades of new paint
refresh this space, the original details of the e.j.
sooley house give visitors a taste of living in the past
Though the linens were all replaced, the beds and dresser in
the bedroom are all original Sooley furniture. Ken and Sharon,
in a nod to modern conveniences, brought hot water heaters
into the home and Ken found a faucet that matches the one in
the pantry. The handles on all the cabinets are original.

8. Sooley House (named both for
their grandfather, Edward John,
and grandmother, Elizabeth
Jane), the siblings went to great
lengths to honour its heritage,
furnishing it with pieces that
are either original to the home
or, as in the case of a working
vintage stove, staunchly uphold
its primitive spirit. “The house
is a part of a fishing village that
has barely changed in a hundred
years,” says Sharon, “so we made
a conscious decision not to
modernize it.” In the kitchen,
a traditional daybed sits beside
the stove, awaiting the time
when the weary cook needs a
break, while the home’s three
bedrooms boast traditional iron
beds and handmade dressers,
along with supplemental hooks
in lieu of closet space.
Despite the emphasis on
authenticity, some concessions
to visitors’ tastes were made,
both in the form of updated
appliances and a “bridge” at the
back of the home looking out
at the panorama over the water.
“In Newfoundland, houses
weren’t built for views of the
ocean,” explains Sharon. “The
wind coming off the water
made it way too cold.”
Inside, the overarching
feel of E.J. Sooley House is a
warm, cheery port in a storm,
a treasure awash in turquoise
hues to combat the harsh grey
scenery out the windows. “The
backdrop is undisciplined
and undiscovered—it really is
the last frontier of Canada,” says
Ken with conviction. “When
you’re here you’re literally walk
ing on top of history.”
