Caverhill, also known as the Davis House and the Geary House, is the second-oldest home in Rosedale (only Drumsnab, overlooking the Don Valley on the other side of the neighbourhood, is older). Geary had bought the house as a bachelor, but when he married, he named the house Caverhill, after his bride’s maiden name. Caverhill remained in the Geary family until 1984, when it was put up for sale. The original brick was carefully cleaned, repaired and, where required, replaced with heritage brick. It’s very much a cozy family home.”Which is, throughout its shifting fortunes, what Caverhill was always meant to be.
