Smith Residence, Mississippi River, Ontario

 

 

An aesthetic, resembling a country manor house, is achieved through a collection of several gables of varying scales clad in either stone, board & batten or acrylic stucco. Extensive limestone masonry culminates in two identically sized chimneys (orientated at right angles to one another) one of which has a narrow window through its 4′-0″ core. Painted wood trellis columns appear at each of three covered porches and are designed to reference a similar element on from the Smith’s previous 19th century farmhouse nearby. The scale of the attached three bay garage is broken down by means of double sided through doors built to emulate a joined carriage house. General Contractor: Brian Howie, Masonry Contractor: Jerry Kean, Kitchen Design and Fabrication: John Brathwaite.
