A Rare Rural Retreat an extraordinary countryside estate just minutes from Guelph and Cambridge. Set on nearly two acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this sprawling bungalow offers a lifestyle of comfort, luxury, and endless possibilities. Step inside and experience over 4,000 sq. ft. of impeccably finished living space, featuring 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a 3-car attached garage plus a separate 2-car workshop/garage for your projects or extra storage. The 2593 sq. ft. main floor boasts rustic pine plank flooring, a timeless gourmet kitchen, and a spa-like en suite designed for ultimate relaxation. The fully finished lower level nearly doubles the square footage, complete with a gorgeous rec room, a walkout to the backyard, and a separate entrance, perfect for multi-generational living or potential income opportunities. Embrace Eco-friendly, cost-effective living with a newly installed geothermal heating and cooling system and solar panels generating income! Step outside to a South-facing backyard oasis. Spend summers lounging by the, solar-heated pool, unwind in the year-round hot tub, or challenge friends and family on the professional-grade tennis court, which could also convert into a couple pickle ball courts, basketball court or a winter ice rink! Additional highlights include: 400-amp service, oversized septic system, newer roof, two cozy wood stoves, and a comprehensive water filtration system. All of this, just 10 minutes from Costco & West End Rec Center, 10 minutes to South End amenities, and 13 minutes to downtown Guelph.This is more than a home, it's a lifestyle and it is truly one of my favourite properties I have had the pleasure to sell.
