115 COBOURG Street Stratford

Looking for a classic Gothic Revival Ontario Cottage that you can renovate to make your own? Look no further! This solidly built brick home boasting ample interior space is your gal! Built in 1887/88, the exterior front features segmentally arched windows and segmentally arched single leaf entranceway with brick soldier course over both. The gabled roofline with wooden bargeboard has a small semielliptical window below the peak in true quintessential Ontario cottage style. A wide centre hall divides the front floor plan, originally constructed to open up into a large living space. Interestingly, this cottage and the one immediately west of it were built as twins by two brothers. Some siblings age better than others (ahem) and this gentle lady needs someone with a passion for looking past a few bumps and bruises while effecting a restoration that will turn her back into the beauty she once was. Happily, she is settled in at a location that is just a short stroll to the Avon River (can we all cheer for Summer Barge Music and Art-in-the-Park?), the world-renowned Stratford Festival Theatres and Stratford’s celebrated downtown core. This is a lifestyle many people dream of! (63587650)
