Heritage attributes

The Graham House is a representative example of a Colonial Revival home with Arts and Crafts influences from the early 1900s. Colonial Revival attributes of the home include: the massing of the historic two-and-a-half-storey house; its side gabled roof with dormers; its symmetrical façade with a central entrance; the decorative portico with round wooden columns and decorative frieze; Palladian style windows in gables; panelled front door complemented by sidelights with leaded glass windows; and the porte-cochère with its round wooden columns, frieze board and balustrade. The house also contains a mix of local materials and elements from the Arts and Crafts era that embody craftsmanship from natural materials.
