Period millworkTwo marble fireplacesCustom kitchen cabinetry
Built circa 1870 by William "Boss" Easson, the Avon Castle is one of Stratford's most storied addresses. A street in this city still bears Easson's name. That history is baked into the foundation. The architecture is Second Empire style - A French architectural language that had swept from Paris into the prosperous cities in North America. The mansard roof with elaborately crafted semi-circular dormers, wooden brackets along the cornice, sidelights and a three-part transom at the entrance. Inside, the scale is something rarely found today. Soaring 12 ft ceilings, a custom centre staircase that rises as a sculptural statement through the home. Intricate mouldings were restored, period millwork, two marble fireplaces and tall windows anchor every principal room. The main floor includes a dedicated cocktail lounge and wet bar, fitted within the original formal layout. The primary suite has a 5-piece ensuite and walk-in closet overlooking the river. Balcon access from two of the upper bedrooms. Everything behind the walls is NEW! Custom kitchen cabinetry, stone surfaces and premium fixtures throughout. All electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation and mechanical systems fully replaced. the bones are 19th century the systems are of this one.
