Cross Streets: Clara Street. ** Directions: Heading east into Rockwood (from Guelph) turn right onto Pasmore Street. The property is at the very end of the road. Go over the bridge and you have arrived. Set against the limestone escarpment on a private 1.1-acre lot at the end of a quiet road in Rockwood, this extraordinary retreat is surrounded by conservation land, offering complete privacy and a deep connection to nature. What began as untouched forest became an architectural masterpiece - the result of over three years of meticulous planning, permitting, and passion. Eighteen feet of rock were carved away to shape the foundation. A centuries-old log cabin from Ariss was carefully deconstructed and reassembled on-site, bridging history with modern innovation. Even the entrance was designed to impress - complete with its own handcrafted bridge leading to the home's grand arrival. Inside, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Soaring cathedral ceilings, oversized windows, and panoramic forest views create an atmosphere that's both inspiring and serene. The main living area opens onto a European-style stone courtyard, while the primary suite feels like a private spa, complete with a luxurious ensuite and its own tranquil waterfall outlook. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bath offer comfort and flexibility for family or guests. The walk-out basement opens to a stunning flagstone patio complete with a hot tub - an ideal spot to unwind in total tranquility. Inside, enjoy the well-appointed entertainment level featuring a custom bar and private wine cellar, a pool table area perfect for friendly competition, a theatre room to catch the big game, a dedicated gym space for workouts, a full bathroom, and more. And then there's the historic 550 sq. ft. log cabin - beautifully restored and ready to serve as a guest house, creative studio, or personal sanctuary. Outfitted with a wet bar, gas fireplace, full bathroom, and ample storage, it's a destination all its own. A triple-car garage with lift provides ample room for vehicles, hobbies, and adventure gear, blending practicality with luxury. Schedule a private showing today to experience 198 Pasmore. (id:27476)
