Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog
– Circa 1876 –
Nestled in the heart of Uxbridge, the Boyd House at 188 Brock Street West is a charming example of 19th-century craftsmanship and architectural design. Built in 1876-77, this 1½-storey home reflects both the skill of its builder and the stylistic influences of its time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of our town.
The Boyd House was constructed by Thomas Boyd, a talented carpenter whose skill and attention to detail are evident throughout the property. The main house is a wood frame structure, boasting a high-pitched roof that sits gracefully on a traditional fieldstone foundation. Its original shiplap boarding, now covered by vinyl siding, hints at the home’s historical integrity. The roof, made of asphalt shingles on wood planking, preserves the authentic character of the house.
One of the most striking aspects of the Boyd House is its wraparound verandah, which evokes the Classical Revival style popular during its time. The rounded porch not only adds elegance but also serves as a welcoming feature that invites visitors to pause and admire the home’s beauty.
A distinctive gable on the second floor includes a door opening onto a railed verandah, offering a quaint and picturesque touch. Adding to the home’s charm are two decorative brackets adorned with a sunburst pattern. These brackets are believed to be unique to Uxbridge, showcasing a design element that sets the Boyd House apart from other historic properties in the area.
The Boyd House stands as a testament to Uxbridge’s architectural heritage, connecting us to the craftsmanship and traditions of the late 19th century. While modern updates like vinyl siding, asphalt roofing and newer six over six windows have been added, the home’s original features continue to shine through, preserving its historical significance.

Greater Toronto Area (GTA) home sales increased strongly on a yearover-year basis in November 2024. Many buyers benefitted from more affordable market conditions brought about by lower borrowing costs. New listings were also up compared to November 2023, but by a much lesser annual rate. This meant that market conditions tightened, resulting in overall average price growth compared to last year.
“As we approach the end of 2024, I am pleased to report an improvement in housing market conditions. Many home buyers patiently waited on the sidelines for reduced inflation and lower borrowing costs. With selling prices remaining well off their historic peak and monthly mortgage payments trending lower, the stage is set for an accelerating market recovery in 2025,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) President Jennifer Pearce.

New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 11,592 – up by 6.6 per cent year-over-year. On a seasonally adjusted basis, November sales were up month-overmonth compared to October.
The MLS® Home Price Index Composite benchmark was down by 1.2 per cent year-over year in November 2024 – a much lesser annual rate of decline compared to previous months. The average selling price was up by 2.6 per cent compared to November 2023 to $1,106,050. Year-over-year average price growth was greater than that for the HPI Composite benchmark because of a greater weighting of detached home sales compared to last year. On a seasonally adjusted basis, the average selling price edged slightly lower compared to October.
“Market conditions have tightened, particularly for single-family homes. The detached market segment experienced average annual price growth above the rate of inflation, particularly in the City of Toronto. In contrast, the condominium apartment segment continued to experience lower average selling prices compared to a year ago. Condo buyers are benefitting from a lot of choice and therefore negotiating power. This will attract renter households into homeownership as borrowing costs trend lower in the months ahead,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer.
While the rental market will remain relatively well-supplied as more renters transition to homeownership, expect rental demand to pick up as population growth remains high. The rental market could strengthen for both tenants and landlords by reducing the backlog of cases at the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB).
“Reforming the LTB to make it faster and fairer will go a long way to getting more individuals and families into homes they can afford,” said TRREB CEO John DiMichele.

The Township of Uxbridge’s real estate market in November 2024 experienced notable growth in average sales price, driven in part by sales of higher-value rural properties.

This increase was influenced by the sale of four rural properties priced between $1,535,000 and $2,900,000. Detached homes averaged $1,439,167, reflecting the township’s continued appeal for high-value properties. The sale-to-list price ratio was 98%, indicating a balanced negotiation climate.

Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog
Nestled just south of Uxbridge along the 7th Concession lies the Village of Glen Major, a serene community with a rich history. Though it now appears quiet and remote, this area was once a thriving village, alive with industry and community spirit.
The roots of Glen Major trace back to the mid-19th century when it was known as Glen Sharrard, named after the Sharrard family, who established the first sawmill around 1850. The sawmill became the heart of the village, driving growth and drawing settlers to the area.
By the late 1800s, Glen Sharrard was bustling with activity. The village boasted two sawmills, a gristmill, a hotel, a general store, a post office, a train station, a school, and the Wesleyan Methodist Church, which was built in 1873 and quickly became a cornerstone of the community.
School House closed in the 1940’s and is now a private residence
In the 1870s, Edward Major purchased the sawmills and decided to rename the village in honour of his family. By 1878, Glen Major was officially established. The post office, which had opened in the 1860s, provided a vital connection to the outside world, and the church brought people together for worship and social gatherings.
Possible the General Store or Post Office. Now a private residence.
Despite its early success, Glen Major faced challenges as the industrial landscape changed. Larger sawmills in Uxbridge and other towns outcompeted the smaller operations in Glen Major, leading to the mills’ closure before the turn of the century.
As employment opportunities dwindled, the general store followed suit, and the village’s decline accelerated. The post office closed in 1928, and by the 1940s, the school had shut its doors due to a lack of students. Over time, Glen Major faded into a quiet community, leaving only traces of its once-vibrant past.
Today, Glen Major is a peaceful area, with a few enduring landmarks that tell the story of its past:
Glen Major United Church: Originally the Wesleyan Methodist Church
While the industry and activity that once defined Glen Major are long gone, its history is still felt in the community’s remaining structures and the memories they evoke. The village serves as a peaceful retreat, offering glimpses into a time when sawmills hummed with activity, the train station bustled with travellers, and the church echoed with hymns.
Glen Major may be quiet now, but its legacy endures, inviting visitors to reflect on the resilience and determination of the people who built and sustained this once-thriving community.

– 1878 –
Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Uxbridge, Ontario, the Pine Grove Church stands as a testament to the area’s rich history. This quaint, white-painted church, has been a beacon of faith and community for generations.
Pine Grove Church was built through the dedication and collaboration of local pioneer families. The land on which it sits was purchased from Edward and Mariah Major for the symbolic price of one dollar, reflecting the communal values of the time. This simple yet profound act of generosity laid the foundation for a place where faith, community, and heritage would intersect.
In the early years, the church was served by ministers from neighboring towns, including Uxbridge, Goodwood, and Claremont. These dedicated individuals traveled the winding roads to bring comfort and guidance to the growing congregation.
A poignant reminder of the pioneers who laid the groundwork for this community is the Cross of Remembrance. Raised in June 1953, this memorial honours the unknown and unmarked graves of those who settled the area.
Cross of Remembrance
After years of disuse, the Pine Grove Church experienced a renewed sense of purpose thanks to the efforts of the Pine Grove Church Ladies Auxiliary. They organized special services for Christmas, Thanksgiving, and the spring, breathing new life into the historic building.
The charm and timelessness of Pine Grove Church did not go unnoticed beyond its local community. In the early 1990s, it was chosen as a filming location for the popular Canadian TV series Road to Avonlea, which aired between January 7, 1990, and March 31, 1996. This show, beloved by many for its depiction of life in early 20th-century Prince Edward Island, showcased the church’s quaint beauty to a wider audience, adding a layer of cultural significance to its history.
The Pine Grove Church continues to be a cherished landmark, a symbol of the enduring spirit of faith and community. Its story is interwoven with the history of Uxbridge, and it remains a reminder of the pioneers who shaped this region.

109 Brock Street East
The R.P. Harman House at 109 Brock Street East is a charming example of historic architecture in Uxbridge, showcasing the elegance and craftsmanship of the past. This L-shaped, 1 ½ storey frame house stands out with its distinctive blend of Gothic Revival elements. The home features large and small gables, adding depth and character to its exterior, while the front door—crafted in the Gothic style—serves as a focal point, welcoming visitors onto a quaint, railed verandah.
One of the home’s standout features is the intricate stained glass that adorns the sidelights and transom around the front door. This artistic detail not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also offers a glimpse into the craftsmanship and design trends of its time.
The house is tied to the legacy of Reuben P. Harman, a well-respected figure in Uxbridge. Harman was both a schoolteacher and a businessman, deeply rooted in the local community. His entrepreneurial spirit led him to own a Sash and Door Factory as well as the “Foundry – Aeric Machinery.” His contributions to Uxbridge’s development through education and industry reflect the house’s historical significance.
The R.P. Harman House stands as more than just a residential building; it’s a testament to Uxbridge’s rich history, offering a window into the lives of the people who helped shape the town during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
