40 First Street, First and Second Street Heritage Conservation District, Oakville, ON

Excerpt from www.oakville.ca/assets/general%20-%20business/Feb22Sectio...:

40 First Street (1855): William Francis Romain built a small 2 storey house in 1855, now the side wing of the existing house. In 1863, an elaborate 2 storey addition was built and became the main portion of the house. Romain was a prominent local grain merchant, as well as a Deputy Reeve representing Trafalgar Township and for many years served as Councilor and Mayor. He was married to Ester Ann, the eldest daughter of William Chisholm. The 1855 wing of the house is Georgian-style with asymmetrical 4-bay façade. The 1863 portion of the house was built in the Italianate style with wide eaves supported by large decorative brackets, a low pitched hip roof, rusticated quoins, and a string course. At one time, a Regency styled verandah wrapped around much of the building. It was replaced by W.S. Davis with the existing portico.
