Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog
Nestled in the heart of Uxbridge, 9 Bascom Street carries with it a vibrant history that mirrors the town’s evolution. From its humble beginnings as an egg grading station to its transformation into a hub for modern businesses, this building has played an integral role in Uxbridge’s community life.
In its earliest incarnation, 9 Bascom Street served as an egg grading station—a nod to Uxbridge’s agricultural roots. This role underscores the town’s ties to farming, where buildings like this one supported the livelihoods of local producers.

As Uxbridge began to grow, so did the demand for more diverse services. At some point, 9 Bascom transitioned to a Canadian Tire warehouse and service centre (now located at 327 Toronto St S), complementing the store’s location on Brock Street. Here, it served as a logistical hub for the iconic retailer, supporting the community’s burgeoning needs for automotive and household goods.
In 1979, the building underwent a significant transformation, reflecting the shift toward professional services in downtown Uxbridge. It became home to James Campbell Insurance (now located at 33 Toronto St N, Uxbridge) and Triad Travel Service, signalling the diversification of businesses in the area. The change marked a move away from industrial use to becoming a central location for everyday professional needs.

Over the years, 9 Bascom Street has continued to adapt, hosting a variety of businesses that reflect Uxbridge’s entrepreneurial spirit:

Each tenant and transformation has added a layer to its story, making it a true landmark in the community.

– 1860 –
The Scott Township Municipal Hall, a structure rich in history and heritage, stands as a testament to the roots of community governance in the Township of Uxbridge. Designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, this building is more than just an architectural artifact; it is a symbol of civic pride and the enduring spirit of the community.
Visit the Township of Uxbridge Heritage Register
Built in 1860 by Anthony Thompson, the Scott Township Municipal Hall originally graced the northeast corner of Lot 14, Concession 5 in Scott Township. Its creation marked a significant milestone in the area’s history, as it provided a dedicated space for the township council to conduct meetings, which had previously been held in local schools. Constructed using a traditional “barn framed” method, the hall quickly became a focal point for governance and community activities.
Beyond serving as the council’s meeting place from 1860 until the end of 1967, the hall played a vital role in the daily lives of Scott Township residents. It doubled as a community hall for the 6th Concession and occasionally hosted church services, reflecting its versatility and importance as a communal gathering space. These functions highlight the hall’s intrinsic role in fostering a sense of community and unity among its residents.
The hall’s journey didn’t end when it ceased functioning as a municipal space. In 1967, Dorothy and Ed Brown purchased the building, relocating it to their farm and transforming it into the Country Heritage Museum. During this period, the hall was outfitted with vertical siding, a change that gave it a new aesthetic while preserving its structural integrity.
In July 1993, the hall embarked on yet another chapter of its storied life. It was moved to the Uxbridge Historical Centre (UHC) grounds, where it resides today. This relocation ensured that the hall remains accessible to the public, offering a glimpse into the past for residents and visitors alike.
Scott Township itself has a rich and storied history. Surveyed in 1807 and named after Thomas Scott (1746–1824), a prominent Attorney-General and Chief Justice for Upper Canada, the township was officially incorporated in 1850. Over a century later, in 1974, Scott Township was amalgamated with Uxbridge Township and Uxbridge Town to form the present-day Township of Uxbridge as part of the newly established Region of Durham.
The Scott Township Municipal Hall’s designation under the Ontario Heritage Act underscores its importance as a cultural and historical landmark. Its presence on the UHC grounds allows for its continued preservation and provides a tangible connection to the region’s past. Visitors can explore the building and imagine the council meetings, community events, and church services that once filled its walls.
Visit the Uxbridge Historical Centre’s Buildings
Today, the Scott Township Municipal Hall is more than a historical artifact; it is a living legacy. Its story of adaptation, relocation, and preservation mirrors the resilience and adaptability of the community it served. As part of the Uxbridge Historical Centre, the hall invites everyone to step back in time and experience a piece of history that has shaped the identity of Uxbridge and its surrounding areas.
Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a local resident, or a curious visitor, the Scott Township Municipal Hall is a must-see destination that tells the tale of governance, community, and heritage in Ontario’s past.

The Evolving History of 185 Main St N, Uxbridge
Located just north of the heart of Uxbridge, 185 Main St N has a fascinating history that reflects the town’s growth and changing needs over the decades. This brick and glass building, constructed in 1965 by the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO), originally served as a critical part of the community’s commercial landscape.
The Early Years: A Landmark LCBO Location
When the LCBO built the property, it was designed to be Uxbridge’s official liquor store, bringing a modern and regulated retail experience to the area. For over four decades, 185 Main St N was the go-to destination for residents to stock up on beverages for celebrations, gatherings, and everyday life. Its central location made it a convenient stop for shoppers and a staple of the local business district.
A New Chapter in 2006
In 2006, the LCBO relocated to a larger and more contemporary facility on Welwood Drive, leaving 185 Main St N vacant. The move reflected the LCBO’s effort to provide an expanded selection and enhanced services for the growing Uxbridge community.
Willow Books: A Creative Transformation
After the LCBO’s departure, the building found new life as the home of Willow Books. This charming bookstore became a hub for literary enthusiasts in Uxbridge. It offered a wide selection of titles, adding a cultural and intellectual dimension to its storied history.
Patterson’s Flooring: A Practical Turn
Following Willow Books, the building transitioned into Patterson’s Flooring, a business that catered to homeowners and contractors seeking quality flooring solutions. This marked a shift from cultural pursuits to practical necessities, showcasing the building’s adaptability to changing commercial demands.
Today: A Warehouse with a Story
Currently, 185 Main St N serves as a warehouse, continuing to contribute to the local economy in a quieter capacity. Though its role has evolved significantly over the years, the building remains a tangible link to Uxbridge’s past—a reminder of its journey through retail, culture, and commerce.
A Building That Adapts with the Times
The history of 185 Main St N exemplifies Uxbridge’s dynamic spirit and the versatility of its landmarks. From a bustling LCBO store to a beloved bookstore, a practical flooring business, and now a warehouse, this building has continuously adapted to meet the needs of its community.
Next time you pass by 185 Main St N, take a moment to appreciate its layered history and the stories it holds within its walls. It’s more than just a building—it’s a witness to decades of change in Uxbridge.

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.

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.

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. The average sales price surged to $1,271,969, marking a 5.41% increase from November 2023’s $1,206,714 and a significant 32.8% jump from October’s $958,056. 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.
Total sales for November reached 16, slightly below October’s 18 but above the 14 transactions in November 2023. New listings decreased to 37 from 44 last month, remaining consistent with the 34 new listings a year ago.

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.
GTA REALTORS® reported 5,875 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in November 2024 – up by 40.1 per cent compared to 4,194 sales reported in November 2023. 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.
