Grauer Residence. . JC. Turnbull built and briefly lived in this 1909 Queen-Anne-styled home. It was later acquired by Jacob Grauer, a postmaster at Eburne, whose sons became public figures. The front facade features outstanding ornamentation, coloured glass windows, and a third-storey porch with uniquely curved walls. Notable interior details include fir wainscotting and a wood beamed coffered ceiling. The exterior, portions of the interior, and the ashlar granite retaining wall at the front property line were designated in 1996. Zoning relaxations enabled the restoration of the Grauer Residence, and the new development of the coach house and adjacent three-storey apartment buildings, designed by Michael Katz Architecture and constructed by Rallista Euterprises Inc.
