Hie Sweet Home

Honouring the history of an almost 200-year-old Cobourg farmhouse while rebuilding it for the family’s next chapter.

The project

A family home with nearly two centuries of stories.

Lisa and Scott’s farmhouse is not simply an old structure. It is part of their family’s identity and a place meant to continue serving generations.

Bremkin’s role is to understand what must be protected, what needs to be rebuilt and how the home can function for modern family life without losing what makes it special.

The project is being documented from the beginning so viewers can see more than the reveal: the decisions, discoveries, people and craftsmanship behind the transformation.
