Are there any "traditional" style villages in Ontario? (self.askacanadian)

I'm really into traditional architecture and pre-automobile urban planning. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of that in North America. I know there are a few, I was wondering if Ontario specifically has any nice villages that fit this description? Preferably not abandoned ones, i am looking for ones still inhabited.

Think the old streetcar and railroad suburbs are probably the closest to that, but they're insanely expensive and are being "modernized" with car centric elements as we speak.
