George Wheler Residence
35 Toronto Street North, Uxbridge ON
Built in 1878
The George Wheler Residence was once described as “the most commanding public residences in Uxbridge” by Francis Keller – publisher of the Uxbridge Times-Journal (1978)
The above photos taken in 1959 shows the home as it was seen from the intersection of Toronto Street and Brock Street before it was surrounded by other buildings.
In 1885 George Wheler left town and the home was sold. Since then the property has seen many different owners. Currently it is divided into apartments.
