Farmhouse additions in Scugog

Scugog Township stretches from Port Perry across farm country and Scugog Island. Many properties have an older farmhouse with small rooms and steep stairs, and owners want a bigger kitchen, a dining room for family dinners or a main-floor bedroom.

On a farmhouse, a wing joined by a short breezeway often looks best. It keeps the original house intact, gives the new space its own roofline, and echoes the way farm buildings were added to over generations.

Building in rural Scugog

The Township of Scugog issues permits and applies zoning for rural and agricultural lots. Additions must keep their distance from the well and septic bed, and the system may need upgrading if bedrooms are added. Lots near wetlands or Lake Scugog can be regulated by Kawartha Conservation.

Respecting a family farmhouse

Some Scugog farmhouses have been in the same family for decades. We plan details that keep that story visible, such as reused beams, matching trim profiles or a porch rebuilt the way it once looked.

Rooflines that look right

On a farmhouse, the roof is what people notice first. We match the pitch of the original roof, keep the new ridge below the old one and choose steel or shingles that suit the house, so the addition reads as a natural part of the property from the road.
