This 2 storey stucco clad house was built in Italianate style with features of the Neoclassical Revival style. Recorded for the Canadian Inventory of Historic Buildings as the "The Bush House".

History: Originally patented from the Crown in 1828 to King’s College which was given substantial land grants in Trafalgar Township in the 1820’s to finance their learning institution. In 1831, the property was sold to Robert Kelley, and later ownership was transferred to Robert Kelley’s wife Mary who later was remarried to Richard Hopgood. During Hopgood’s ownership the building that exists now was built. The Hopgoods lived in a farmhouse north of Lakeshore Road E. and rented the house to W. E. Hagaman, who ran the firm of Gage and Hagaman Company with James Gage. These men imported grain and manufactured American goods. From 1880 the property had many owners including John Robinson, a farmer from Ireland, Phillip Triller Kelley, Sarah Page, wife of one of Oakville’s respected doctors, Dr. Andrew William Porte, and Melville Ross Gooderham. In 1959 the property was subdivided with the main house retained on one of the lots and the barn on its own lot later converted into a residence.
