Built in 2012 by the original owners, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of architectural artistry and natural beauty. Set on nearly 5 acres with the serene Pine River winding through, this custom-built home is a true retreat, blending stone, wood, metal, and glass into a striking contemporary design that complements the landscape. Enjoy the calming sounds of the river from screened window walls, a Muskoka room, and multiple walk-outs that seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living. Inside, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is filled with thoughtful and unique details, including custom kitchen cabinetry and hardware, a dramatic glass-encased stairwell, and a handcrafted two-level masonry heater with a built-in pizza oven. A starlight ceiling adds a touch of enchantment. The entire second level is dedicated to a luxurious primary suite featuring a spa-inspired bathroom, walk-in closet, a laundry area, private balcony, and a versatile office or yoga studio. This special home offers year-round enjoyment and comfort, whether you're warming up by the masonry heater in winter or fishing for trout in the river. Spring-fed water source, energy-efficient radiant heat panels, generator and a location just over an hour from the GTA and airport. Designed to let the countryside in, this is a home that must be experienced in person. (id:63008)
