A week ago I published a photo of one of my favorite heritage houses on Robert Street in Victoria West, and lamented about its sorry looking condition. Just across the street from that house is another heritage home that is actually older by several years (built in 1900) but looks as though it could have been erected yesterday. It was designed by the same architect who designed the house across the street, Thomas Hooper. It is described in "This Old House" as a "finely detailed Queen Ann cottage."

Beautiful shot. We love the intricate woodwork on the rails and posts.
Darryl and Ruth : )
Such a beautiful home. I would love to own something like that.
Lovely house, looks a bit bigger than a cottage though!
I have Volume 4 of "This Old House"which contains Fairfield, the neighbourhood I grew up in. It's always interesting to read the history of each house but in my opinion, a recent colour picture brings this home to life. Thanks again for a trip back home.
I'd love to live in an old house like that! You can tell it is loved and well taken care of.
What a beautiful old house. Thanks for the tour of your city.
Want.
