GRACEFULLY SET BACK FROM THE STREET ON COVETED, QUIET COTTINGHAM IN THE REPUBLIC OF RATHNELLY, STANDS THIS EXQUISITE TURN-KEY HOME. BUILT IN 1890, AS ONE OF THE FEW DETACHED HOMES ON THE STREET, 187 COTTINGHAM IS TRULY A GRAND DAME OF THE NEIGHBOURHOOD.

In 2013 the home underwent a full back-to-the-brick restoration, meticulously overseen by the current homeowners, realized by Shima Homes. Their goal was to restore the handsome exterior, honouring the Victorian architecture of the streetscape while reimagining the interior spaces with modern conveniences and the efficiency of daily life in mind. The renovation included up-to-date building systems, intuitive planning, thoughtful design and a quality of craftsmanship that one must experience. The result; an elegant, timeless, turn-key home for the discerning homeowner.
