Collingwood Heritage Home Renovation
This Collingwood heritage home renovation was a true privilege for our team. Restoring and renewing a 120-year-old residence requires more than construction expertise—it calls for patience, respect for history, and commitment to craftsmanship. The goal was to celebrate the home’s legacy while creating a space that feels timeless, functional, and welcoming for modern living.
As an experienced Collingwood custom home builder, we collaborated with the architect, designer and trades to carefully protect the home’s original character. Every decision was made with the homeowners’ input and vision in mind—preserving the character and quirks that make a heritage home unique while introducing subtle enhancements that improve daily life.
Throughout the renovation process, we focused on maintaining the soul of the home. Original architectural details were salvaged and restored wherever possible, while new elements were designed to complement the existing style. The result is a seamless blend of old and new—a home that honors its 120-year history yet feels fresh, functional, and ready to serve generations to come.



















This project stands as a testament to the value of thoughtful heritage restoration and the expertise required to execute it with care. For homeowners seeking a Collingwood custom home builder who understands the balance between preserving history and delivering modern excellence, this renovation reflects what is possible when passion and craftsmanship come together.
