Heritage Estate

The Heritage House Estate sits on a one acre parcel of land on Kingston Road, in Pickering Village, Ajax. Enter the cobblestone circular drive to find a Heritage designated home, two story Carriage House, in-ground concrete pool and Pool House nestled within a park like setting. The stately original residence is a 3500 sq. ft. historic landmark built in 1911 by Dr. Byron Field. The blueprints and a short history of the house with Dr. Field’s photo are mounted in the entrance hall. Of particular interest is the nine panel stained glass window, curved and etched radiators, three original coal burning fireplaces, four bay windows, three sets of burled oak, cross-cut French glass doors and plenty of original plaster, woodwork and fixtures. A full service catering business, commercial kitchen, retail gourmet storefront and the owner’s residence are now contained within the house. The elegantly rustic Carriage House, completed in the fall of 2012, was designed to pick up many of the key elements of the original Field residence, including pillars, trim, colour, French glass and coach lights. Highlights also include 13 crystal chandeliers, 11 tons of British Columbia Douglas Fir beams, distressed hardwood floors, two sets of 8’ French glass doors, and a dozen French glass windows. Fronting the building are six 10’ high, glass bi-fold doors, manufactured by the German firm NanaWall, that fully open the facade of the Carriage House 20’ across x 10’ high, merging indoor and outdoor. The 20’ x 40’ aquamarine concrete pool is headed by a regal Pool House that picks up the pillars, trim and railing of the original Field residence. Within you will find two loveseats, a fireplace, wool rug, change areas and two comfortable bunkies behind six French glass doors. The surrounding finely manicured gardens, kissing bridge and wooden pool deck are ideally suited for outdoor ceremonies, garden parties, photography and filming. Site has been used for commercial production with up to 75 staff. Ample free parking available at church next door
