Property Information |
|
This is a pristine two-bedroom Canadian Victorian farmhouse built in 1850 by the family of Jeremiah Hoyt, a run-away Quaker slave who arrived in Niagara-on-the-Lake via the underground railroad. Harriet Beecher Stowe, anti-slavery writer and activist, was active in the region.
Piano House offers a serene and private retreat with antiques, hardwood floors, lace curtains and central air conditioning throughout. You'll be restored by its calm and restful interior, beautiful gardens, and three separate outdoor sitting areas including a covered porch. Bring a book, bring your sheet music, bring your laptop if you must (high-speed Internet connection provided).
Licensed by the Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake. |

Yes, there certainly is a piano! It's a 1905 Canadian-made studio upright of intricately carved mahogany. It was crafted in nearby Guelph, owned by one farming family for most of its life and kept in lovely voice by a Juilliard School of Music graduate family member. The cabinet was restored in 2004 and we are pleased to offer it in Piano House for your enjoyment.
Bring your own sheet music or use ours. Gather round and sing, or play for your personal pleasure in this lovely parlor. In fact, play all night long—there's a practice/mute peddle to allow you to play softly while others sleep.
The piano is tuned twice each year.
Gardeners delight in Niagara-on-the-Lake, dubbed a 'life-sized window box' by one wit.
And the Piano House's private park-like grounds are no exception.
The half-acre property abounds with mature flowering trees, serene shade gardens, colorful islands of perennials, and graceful stone walkways. The owner is an avid gardener and offers her retreat for your enjoyment. There are three separate outdoor sitting areas: a cozy covered front porch that is ideal for morning coffee, a stone patio of graceful curves, and a large wooden deck nestled into an island of blooming perennials.
