The Lopez Ancestral House,[1] also known as the Lopez Boat House or Eugenio Lopez Ancestral House, is an ancestral house located in La Paz, Iloilo City, Philippines.

History

[edit]

The house was owned by the López family of Iloilo, it was the former residence of Eugenio López Sr., the co-founder of ABS-CBN Corporation, and the brother of Fernando Lopez Sr., who served as Vice President of the Philippines.[2][unreliable source?] The house, built in 1935, was declared a National Heritage House by the National Historical Commission on March 13, 2002.[3][4]

Lopez Ancestral House, declared a Heritage House by the National Historical Institute in March 13, 2002

The house is referred to as the "Boat House" due to its distinctive features resembling those of a boat. According to Oscar Lopez, one of the heirs and son of Eugenio, the design of the house evokes the appearance of a battleship, complete with portholes. The long veranda of the house is likened to a boat's viewing deck, while the tower extends up to a fourth-floor observation area.[3]

From 1992 to 1997, the Boat House was leased by the PAREF Westbridge School for boys.[3]
