Cross Streets: Nichol Sdrd 15. ** Directions: Nichol Rd 15. Where breathtaking west-facing sunsets give way to evenings beneath the stars & the rustle of mature trees replaces the noise of the city, this extraordinary 1.5+ acre country estate offers a rare opportunity to slow down, reconnect & simply breathe. Tucked into a private forested setting where you feel completely removed from the world, yet can be in Elora for dinner in minutes, Guelph in under half an hour & the GTA in 90 minutes, it is luxury without isolation, a home that feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life. Designed to blur the line between indoors & out, walls of windows invite nature into every space, filling the home with ever-changing light & tranquil views. Soaring ceilings, heated floors, Italian travertine, reclaimed elm flooring & striking Valcourt Antoinette wood-burning fireplace create an atmosphere of understated elegance, where gatherings linger long into the evening before giving way to sunset on the west-facing deck. The main-floor primary suite is a peaceful sanctuary, waking to the beauty of the surrounding landscape & ending each day beneath painted evening skies. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms, including one with a private balcony, offer quiet spaces to relax, while the bright lower level provides exceptional accommodations for family & guests. Geothermal heating & advanced home technology complete this remarkable offering. Steeped in history, the 1800s stone outbuilding is more than an outbuilding, it's an invitation to imagine. Today it houses a golf simulator, ; tomorrow it could become an inspiring artist's studio, private office, a welcoming guest suite or games room. Outside, perennial gardens, mature trees & beautifully landscaped grounds create a setting that feels more like a boutique countryside resort than a private residence. This is more than a remarkable home, it is a place to gather, create, celebrate & watch another unforgettable sunset unfold. (id:27476)
