Steeped in old world character, the century stone home exudes country charm and brilliantly recalls to memory the image of days gone by. Built by the the Empire Loyalists, sometimes up to 200 years ago, the quality of construction remains apparent in the fact that they are still standing and in most cases where they have been loved, still shine as one of the prettiest and most popular design of architecture available today. The custom workmanship stands the test of time as does it's period design. At A Stone Home we understand these homes, and we understand the people who own them or dream of buying one some day. It's a process unlike any other in real estate. Since 2007 Dave Chomitz has made Stone Homes a focus of his business and in doing so have come to understand the unique steps and approach most real estate agents never see and certainly don't get. Experience has shown that the typical Stone Home Buyer is looking for that "special" house, location is often secondary. Because they aren't focused on geography, the search can be far reaching ~ often province wide. This creates an enormous challenge for local real estate agents who are trying to expose a home to all potential buyers.

The stone home can be made of cut stone, generally in areas where natural granite would have been found close to the site. This finish is called Ashlar, a smoothly flat cut stone constructed with a minimal of space between stones, brick-like in design and generally used in Georgian style architecture. Alternate design types of stone homes were built with other indigenous materials such as "river stone" and "field" stone. These stone homes have a decidedly more whimsical appearance. The uses of different local stone give each stone home it's unique and individual character. Their owners have a deep sense of pride and priviledge to own a piece of Ontarios rich history. So, here is a site that is dedicated to "A Stone Home".
