CLASSIC COMFORTS — Cont’d from page 4
Meander through a handful of Parade neighbourhoods and you’ll find front porches wide enough to hold a rocking chair or two, along with a side table for your pitcher of lemonade. There’s a new crop of gable roofs adorned with wood beams and ornamental windows, and you’ll see more modern farmhouses than you can shake a stick at.

In the best of times, our home is a refuge from the outside world. Small wonder that in the worst of times granny-chic has become a trend as more of us embrace ultra-soothing homespun habitats.

Indoors, shiplap feature walls, apron sinks, barn doors and clawfoot bathtubs have reached peak popularity. Cont’d on page 8 6 Parade of Homes SPRING 2022
