Named for a hardwood forest in the distance, this grand country estate is an entertainers dream. From the central kitchen, the living, dining, and family rooms allow easy meandering from one to the other - even to the outdoor stone patio and deck. And living in the country, you'll find that visiting guests will be frequent and entertaining needs to be easy and natural.

The property has been a recent  Globe & Mail Home Of The Week.  And no wonder. An original stone 3 bedroom house beautifully restored with a seamless addition, superb formal dining room, spectacular great room with a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, a casual sitting area overlooking the swimming pond and the golf course – there’s an elevator too!

Maple Ridge is likely less than an hour drive from your GTA city home.  The main house and the detached coach house overlook spring fed ponds – one being a swimming pond with dock. The property comprises approximately 84 rolling acres with a mix of farmed fields (managed by the same tenant farmer for the past 20+years), woods, and a 5 hole family golf course/driving range.

Other buildings include an award winning Ontario bank barn, detached stables, and an indoor riding arena. Let’s not forget the fire-pit with large rocks as seats set in a circle; or the brilliant kids bunkie, the heated workshop and the chicken coop with its daily supply of fresh brown eggs. The property has something exquisite for everyone in your family and friends. And if your mood is for shopping, fine dining, or live music there’s all that 15 minutes away.

The owner has had the house inspected, the water tested and it’s pure; the electricity system has been inspected and certified. Just move in.
