Consumer advocacy organization Tarion has condemned three homes in an apartment complex endorsed by celebrity Mike Holmes. A large excavator tears through a modern home in Meaford, Ontario, a picturesque community on Georgian Bay. The house, only two years old, has seen its once high ceilings, large windows and backyard patio reduced to broken glass and wood.

“It’s traumatizing,” said Fayard Johnson, who lives down the street. “Very surprised to see my neighbor’s house being destroyed.”
Another house owned by Fayard’s neighbor is also slated for demolition.
The demolition is the latest chapter in the saga of TerraceWood, a housing development launched in Meaford in 2015 with much pomp. “Boutique” portions of the homes were built by Third Line Homes, backed by celebrity contractor and popular TV personality Mike Holmes.
