About this property

Country Escape by the City

Welcome to our country paradise where tranquility meets rustic elegance meets adventure! This charming walkout basement apartment is situated on a private acreage just minutes from the city. You will enjoy a well appointed bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, and a rec room with a sitting area. The kitchen is fully equipped. You will want to step outside to enjoy nature at your doorstep, and relax under the stars on the porch swing. You will witness the most stunning escarpment views and sunsets!

The space:
A serene oasis nestled in the heart of nature; closely accessible to city living.

COUNTRY ESTATE
This is an exclusive retreat surrounded by 40 acres of lush forest and open fields, and with backyard views of Mt. Nemo, and overlooking the escarpment - a picturesque backdrop for your stay. There is an abundance of nature to enjoy right at your doorstep; and as you stroll through the forest trails, do not forget to say hello to our pony and chickens! At night, during summer season, you might want to keep your window open to hear the rush of water from the creek running through. You also want to ensure you do not miss the view of the escarpment at sunset - which is second to none!

CITY NEARBY:
We are perfectly located with close access to the 407/401/403, and 10 minutes from Burlington/Milton, and 20 minutes from the Glen Eden Ski Resort, and an equal 20 minutes from the Burlington Beach, which has beautiful walking/biking trails along the lake, as well as a sandy beach for summertime fun. You can get into Toronto via the GO train (20 minutes), or Hamilton with the famous Tigercats at the Tim Horton's stadium is a 30 minute drive.

GOLFING:
This is a prime location for golf lovers; as it is located directly across the road from Lowville Golf Club, and less than 10 minutes away from multiple other golf courses.

HIKING:
Our property boasts also private hiking trails that meander through the tranquil wilderness, perfect for those who seek a peaceful escape into nature. The Bruce trail is close by, and Mt. Nemo is right in our backyard. This area is a haven of tranquility, ideal for unwinding and reconnecting with the great outdoors.

FAMILY FRIENDLY:
We welcome your littles and big ones; we have a playpen, and additional beds available. Your children will love exploring the outdoors, and we also have toys and activities for their enjoyment. Please inquire!

Whether you're seeking a quiet walk under the canopy of trees, a leisurely stroll through the fields, or an afternoon of adventure, our countryside estate provides an unparalleled setting.

Please see our other listing for an additional space; this is a walkout basement suite, and the two can be combined to accommodate additional guests: airbnb.ca/h/mtnemosuite
