A truly rare opportunity to own 3.38 acres of beautifully forested land in the heart of the city, offering exceptional privacy in a peaceful, park-like setting surrounded by mature trees, yet close to schools, shopping, transit, and amenities. Zoned R10, this unique parcel extends from Rock City Road to the protected Linley Valley Park area, offering redevelopment potential or the opportunity to enjoy country-style living without leaving the city. Tucked well back from the road, the home is accessed by a private driveway winding through landscaped acreage gardens, creating a secluded retreat. Properties of this size, zoning, and privacy in such a central location are rarely available.
The 2,631 sq ft custom-designed home features floor-to-ceiling windows with glass transoms overlooking the gardens and filling the interior with natural light. The natural gas equipped kitchen offers generous counter space, a casual dinning bar, and extensive cabinetry. The main level includes two bedrooms, a 3-piece bathroom, a family room and formal living and dining rooms, with double French doors opening to a covered patio featuring an outdoor wood-burning fireplace, hot tub, and water feature. The upper level is dedicated to the primary suite with a full ensuite bathroom, while the basement includes an air exchange system and space suitable for wine making and storage. A truly one-of-a-kind property offering privacy, tranquility, and future potential just minutes from the city. (Buyer to verify all redevelopment information with the City.)
