PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A storybook country estate where time slows down. This is a home that was never meant to chase trends, because it’s been too busy creating timeless moments instead. Set on 50 private, professionally landscaped acres with a pond, towering trees, and the charm of an English country garden, this 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom estate has been cherished and meticulously maintained by the same family for over 50 years. Like a vintage car kept in mint condition, it runs perfectly, offering warmth, soul, and a quiet kind of luxury you don’t find anymore. Designed for joy: patios host pizza nights and BBQs, kids splash in the pool, friends gather for lawn games, while others canoe or skate across the pond. Inside, the main floor features four bedrooms, and a classic layout that flows easily. Each window frames views of gardens, stone outcroppings, or trees. Upstairs, a fifth and sixth bedroom and full bath create a flexible retreat for guests or older kids. The finished lower level includes two rec rooms, an office, and plenty of space for hobbies, movie nights, or work-from-home life. And while the interiors aren’t chasing trends, they were never meant to. This is a home with heart, built for laughter and families who value space, nature, and time together. With 3,641.69 sq ft above grade and 5,851.23 sq ft of total finished living space, there’s room to live fully and breathe deeply. A 30x40 ft workshop with its own driveway is tucked in the far corner. Ideal for a home-based business, studio, car collection, or future conversion. Whether you’re a Toronto executive seeking a private retreat, a family craving a cottage alternative without the drive, or a creative needing space to unwind, this is a rare opportunity for true privacy. Located in Burlington with easy access to the QEW and 401, and approximately 35 minutes to Pearson, 30 minutes to McMaster, 45 to Guelph, and under an hour to Waterloo. More than a home, it’s a private legacy estate ready for its next chapter.
