Tucked into the hills of Mulmur on a dead end road lightly traveled, is this
gem of a property on 6 acres. In a very natural setting of mature trees,
ravine and fast moving stream year round, this home melts into the
landscape. A circular driveway brings you directly to the front door with
easy access to this delightful bungalow, a Viceroy home with approx. 3500
sq. ft. of living space which includes the full walk out basement. With its
high peaked shed ceiling, white walls and huge expanse of windows, garden
doors and bank of fixed skylights, it is a home flooded with natural light.
South facing, both the main and walk out levels invite the sun into every
room. The full length deck provides for maximum enjoyment in the warmer
months. The nature lover will be totally thrilled with over 50 species of
birds who have visited this property from grouse, pheasant & hummingbirds to
kingfishers & herons and many have nested here. The ravine, woods, natural
regeneration areas, stream, lawns, open areas and hedgerows provide a unique
habitat for many different types of wildlife including the frequent visits
from turtles, deer and wild turkeys. The setting provides seclusion ,
privacy and quiet so very special to this charming parcel. The home sits
overlooking a ravine which gently flows down to the stream that meanders
across the full southern and eastern boundaries of this 6 acres. It is a
significant stream running year round and providing excellent viewing of the
visiting wildlife who enjoy its bounty. This is the spot to park your chair
and just sit and enjoy the soothing sounds of running water in its most
natural state. The delightful home is open concept interior design with high
peaked ceilings and 6 walkouts, a home that pulls you out onto the full deck
spanning the south side to enjoy what lies beyond. Gently landscaped, there
are areas of open lawn to enjoy and charming perennial gardens with cypress
trees softening the edges of the house. Huge clumps of lavender have been
allowed to run their course. This is a property that consciously works with
the laws of nature without imposing any hard rules. It awaits its next
guardians. Close to skiing, golfing, walking trails, fine restaurants and
easy exit to main roads, it is 15 minutes to Alliston for all your larger
needs. Within an hour’s drive to the 400 Hwy and airport, it’s certainly
possible to commute to the GTA from here.
