• Enter answer below:
The property municipally addressed as 883 Doon Village Road in Kitchener contains a mid -
19th century two-story dwelling, a mid -19th century one -and -a -half story coach house
(formerly used as a hog and hen barn), and a modern detached garage.
The existing dwelling is the primary heritage attribute of the property, and the coach
house is considered a secondary attribute. The coach house is an original feature of the
former farm complex, and is representative of an early agricultural structure.
The dwelling and coach house were constructed by Benjamin Burkholder, one of the first
school teachers to the region.
The former hog and hen barn was relocated closer to the primary dwelling in 2019, and
placed on a new foundation in the Spring of 2020. Restoration on the exterior was
completed in late Fall of 2021, while the interior restoration was completed in Fall of 2022.
The former hog and hen barn was hand excavated in sections and secured by metal
strapping. Two layers of large I -beams (20' and 40') were used to support the weight of
the structure, while hydraulic jacks lifted the stone barn so cribbing could be placed
underneath. Once the barn was lifted off of the original dirt foundation, two 60' I -beams,
along with cribbing were used to move the structure onto the new engineered foundation.
Exterior restoration included the use of limestone mortar to repoint damaged brick and
stone, installation of wood awning windows, replacement of wood soffit and fascia, as well
as a new steel roof match the original roof. A modern glass entry door system was
installed to support the adaptive reuse of this building.
