Custom built with a high level of craftsmanship, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom home sits on just over an acre of private, forested land only five minutes from Meaford. Set well back from the road and surrounded by mature trees, the home was designed to make the forest part of the experience. Vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows fill the main living space with natural light and frame the forest views, while an impressive natural stone fireplace anchors the room and creates the perfect spot to curl up on winter days. The kitchen features quartz countertops and a large island with a butcher block countertop, opening to the living and dining spaces. With the primary suite and laundry on the main floor, the home offers the ease of one-floor living. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a spacious loft provide room for family and guests, with the loft offering a flexible family room, office or bonus space. A wraparound deck extends the living space outdoors, surrounded by mature forest, privacy and wildlife in every season. The lower level offers even more potential with 9-foot ceilings, large windows and a three-piece bathroom rough-in. Finish it for additional living space or continue using it as a spacious workshop. And while it feels wonderfully private, the location keeps you connected. Downtown Meaford is just five minutes away, Georgian Bay is down the road, and the Tom Thomson Trail is steps from the property. (id:2493)
