Heritage Properties
376 Douglas Ave is a heritage property listed in the Oakville Heritage Register. The property was built in 1922. The heritage status was designated in 2011.
Description: The Thornton House is a good representation of a vernacular 1920s Oakville bungalow inspired by the Arts and Crafts design movement. These characteristics include the use of brick and textured stucco cladding, grouped multi-paned windows and broad roof sweeping over the large verandah with recessed entrance.
History: The property is directly associated with the development of the local residential area known as ‘Brantwood’, an early 20th century subdivision of Oakville. The property was built in the mid to early phase of the subdivision and contributes to the value of this relatively intact historic development. Thomas and Alice Thornton likely constructed the house sometime between 1913 and 1922. Thomas was a local printer and the property was in Alice’s name until her passing in 1944. The property purchased by Peter Rea in 1952, a local bank manager, and remained in the Rea family until 2011.
