Century and heritage homes in Uxbridge

Uxbridge's older homes, many built before the Second World War, have character worth keeping and systems that usually are not: knob-and-tube or early wiring, plaster and lath walls, stone or block foundations, and framing that is rarely square. We open these houses carefully, test for asbestos and lead paint before demolition, and plan for what is behind the walls instead of pretending it will not be there.

1970s to 1990s family homes in Uxbridge

Homes built in Uxbridge from the 1970s to the 1990s are reaching their first full renovation: original oak kitchens, tub-and-tile bathrooms, sunken living rooms and windows at the end of their life. Some of these houses also have materials worth checking before work starts, such as aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s and 1970s or poly-B plumbing installed from the late 1970s to the late 1990s.

Rural homes on well and septic in Uxbridge

Rural properties around Uxbridge bring their own considerations. Homes on a private septic system and well need the system checked before adding bedrooms, bathrooms or a second unit, because more bedrooms means more daily flow, and a septic system has to be sized for it. Larger lots give more room for additions and outdoor space.

Plenty of Uxbridge homes, from Downtown Uxbridge and Goodwood to the rest of the area, have a basement that is unfinished or finished decades ago. Either way, it is usually the cheapest square footage in the house to turn into real living space.

Legal Basement Apartments in Uxbridge

In Uxbridge, homeowners are adding legal secondary suites to help with the mortgage and to keep family close. The key is building one properly, with a permit, so the unit is safe, insurable and adds value when you sell.
