This quality-built bungalow on 49 picturesque acres offers peaceful country living just minutes from Meaford, Blue Mountain, and Owen Sound. Designed for complete one-floor living, the home features 2 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and an open-concept kitchen, living, and dining area centered around a beautiful two-sided propane stone fireplace. Geothermal heating and cooling provide economical comfort year-round, while large windows fill the home with natural light and showcase the scenic surroundings. Step out to the wraparound deck or enjoy the screened-in covered porch off the dining room. A large mudroom with laundry adds convenience, along with recent updates including a new roof (2024) and fresh interior paint (2023). The property is a functional small farm, previously set up for cattle and currently set up for horses with a 32.5' x 72' barn offering nine 12' x 11' box stalls, a tack/feed room, rubber-matted 10' aisles, frost-free taps, and a thermostatic exhaust fan. Additional outbuildings include a 40' x 25' driveshed with a 40' x 16' lean-to for hay storage, plus a third large barn with a run-in -- all on a separate hydro meter with a separate driveway, offering rental or business potential. Paddocks and 35 arable acres and 8 acres of hay complete this versatile rural retreat on the historic Old Mail Road -- where neighbours still wave as they pass. (id:2493)
