I dropped in to Historic House Salvage just to browse and walked out with a great little trunk. Well, Nathaniel did... actually, as he loaded it into my car :). Great service.This is a wonderful hidden gem in the beautiful village of Warkworth. Nicely displayed treasures of salvage pieces and a good selection of antiques. A must visit for sure.read more

So delighted to have discovered Historic House Salvage and the lovely antique desk we purchased from Nathaniel. There... is so much we like about this place, but besides the lofty, well organized space with great selection, interesting salvage pieces and antiques, Nathaniel is a pleasure to deal with and is genuinely interested in his clientele. Warkworth is an easy dash off the 401 in lovely countryside, with some other interesting stops along the path. We will most certainly be back!read more

Happened upon this gem of a place this past weekend and was so glad that I did. Fell in love with an old hutch that I... just had to have. Nathaniel was so very helpful, putting my piece on hold till I could get home and measure my space. Happy to report the hutch is all warm and cozy now in my hallway. Such an amazing price too. I was also pleasantly surprised that Nathaniel delivered it for me a few days later at no extra charge. I hope he has a frequent buyers card as I plan to visit again soon.read more

Nathaniel has the most amazing shop of treasures.Not only did he help us find the coolest vintage doors for our... renovation, but he matched up the hardware for the doors and refinished them to perfection. He even customized a lock for one door.The selection inside is stunning and Nathaniel went over and above to accommodate us. Highly recommend this shop. Customer service is next level.read more

Nathaniel is seriously one of the best! I ended up calling him Nate just because we had so many message exchanges!... Shopping virtually wasn’t easy but he made it so enjoyable! We ordered a clawfoot tub from him and the experience from the beginning to the end was nothing but incredible. He went far and beyond- not only dropped it off at a local shop specializes in restoration, picked it up from them, and also delivered to our house. A 300 pound baby! We wouldn’t be able to do this without him seriously! So grateful! Will be a regular customer for sure.read more
