5006 6th Line Guelph/Eramosa, ON N0B 2K0

This circa 1875 fieldstone farmhouse has been thoughtfully redesigned by architect Grant A. Whatmough and is set on approximately 99 acres behind a gated entry. Maintaining classic charm and embracing modern conveniences, this property is ready for a new family to carry on tradition. The main floor welcomes you with a double-door entry leading into a spacious open-concept kitchen and large living area, highlighted by a stone fireplace and deep windowsills. The kitchen features Corian counters, stainless steel appliances, a center island, and walkout access to a covered stone patio and in-ground pool. Enjoy cozy breakfasts by the wood-burning fireplace or host larger gatherings in the formal dining room. A rare main-floor primary suite offers hardwood floors and a walkout through double French doors to a sunroom with heated floors overlooking the perennial-filled backyard and pool. The spa-style ensuite includes heated tile floors, a double glass shower, and a soaker tub. Upstairs, you will find four bright and spacious bedrooms, each with closets and windows overlooking the private property. In addition to the extra height on the second floor, the family retreat features two updated baths, upper-level laundry and generous closet space. Outdoor living here is highlighted by a 20' x 40' geothermal heated marbelite pool with diving board, flagstone patio, and a covered entertainment area for summer events by the pool. This space comes complete with a pizza oven and covered cooking area. A heritage post-and-beam barn (circa 1860) with hayloft, a secondary garage or shed & a silo enhance the property's charm. Mechanically, the home offers dual geothermal systems (for house & pool), radiant in-floor heating, two drilled wells, and an active lease on approximately 52 workable acres. Trails & a 21-acre woodlot provide endless opportunities for exploration. This one-of-a-kind rural retreat is just minutes from town amenities-ready for its next family to move in and enjoy. (id:8860)
