14 Catharine Street, Port Colborne

Welcome to 14 Catharine Street, Port Colborne - the historical Wildwood. Wildwood is an elegant two-storey residence built in 1876 influenced by elements of Greek Revival and Queen Anne architecture. The bay and oriel windows, tower, decorative moldings, and Art Nouveau stained glass windows embody the quintessential late 19th-century Queen Anne style.
