GEORGIAN

The earliest of Cabbagetown styles, these mostly brick-clad houses were built in our neighbourhood between 1840 and 1870. Elegant and austere, the Georgian house has a sparsely ornamented, symmetrical façade.

Note:

  • Sometimes windows are four-light sashes but more often 8-12 lights.
  • The entrance door is usually centrally located, half-glazed, panelled, with sidelights.
  • There often is a semi-circular sunburst transom above the door.
