The Home
This home has undergone a transformation into a light-filled country home with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The main level has a wonderful floor plan where the eat-in kitchen overlooks the great room with fireplace and exposed timber walls. At the front of the home is the living room with fireplace, hardwood floors and countryside views.
The eat-in kitchen has a large centre island, top-of-the-line appliances and expansive dining area with plenty of windows. The kitchen area has its own coffee station plus walk-in pantry.
Behind the kitchen is the main floor laundry with laundry sink, extra storage & folding counter. The mudroom with ample storage plus updated 2-piece powder room are alongside the laundry room.
The upstairs of the home features a large primary bedroom suite with its own sitting room, walk-in closet and updated bathroom. Also on this level is a playroom, 2 more bedrooms plus an additional 4-piece bathroom.
The outdoor spaces on the property are very peaceful. There is a large wrap-around covered porch plus a screened porch which adds to the space in the warmer months. There are several raised gardens for growing vegetables and cutting flowers. A potting shed is found just across the driveway. Mature trees line the property. To the east of the studio is a large terrace which offers views down to the pond and across the paddocks. A perfect place to enjoy the fire pit.
The Studio/Workshop/Garage
Across the courtyard is a 2-car garage which also has a workshop and a heated office/studio. This is a very useful accessory building.
Restored Bank Barn
Mennonite contractors helped restore the century barn and added new exterior wood siding, re-pointed the stonework and added a long-life metal roof. Attached to the bank barn is a large chick coop. This is a wonderful building for hobbies or storage.
The Lands
This corner property is very well located about 10 minutes west of Aurora and within minutes to Highway 400. The property has large rolling fenced paddocks plus a spring-fed pond.
