160 Acre Caledon Mansion

Re-designed & Re-imagined!

This grand residence has just undergone a chic redesign. Bright rooms and today’s crisp styling showcase the superb quality craftsmanship. An amazing transformation!

This 160 acre country estate could never be recreated in Caledon given all of today’s zoning restrictions.

Key Highlights:

• Fresh interior redesign (2019)
• 20,000+ sq ft (GFA) main residence
• 3 other guest houses + gate house
• Garages for 12+ cars
• Tennis, trout pond, miles of hiking trails
• Maple syrup operation
• Room for equestrian facilities
• AAA location close to Caledon Ski Club, Devil’s Pulpit Golf Club
• Climate controlled secure wine warehouse in main house
• Fully equipped maple sugar shack
• Paved road frontage and paved interior roads
• Indoor pool with home gym, hot tub, steam room, change rooms, fireplace
• 35 mins to Pearson Airport

This is a personal country resort with macro appeal. This is the ultimate multi-generational family property allowing for varied pursuits. The action never stops!

Irreplaceable!

The property is a truly compelling value proposition which will appeal those buyers who appreciate the once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire this bespoke country property. The current zoning limitations would not allow another property to have the breadth of on-site amenities as this property. The size and number of buildings including the main house, gate house, plus 3 additional homes plus the crystal clear brook trout pond would not be permitted under today’s regulations. Dare to compare this country property offering!

Views, Privacy, plus Location, Location, Location

The property has pastoral views across the Niagara Escarpment. You will feel you are miles away from civilization, yet the property is within easy reach of Pearson International Airport by car or 7 minutes by helicopter! The property has a wonderful range of on-site hiking trails which lead directly to the famed Bruce Trail. The property is 5 minutes from the family-oriented Caledon Ski Club, the historic Caledon Mountain Trout Club and many noted golf courses.

Amenities

The sprawling compound offers its owners and their guests an impressive array of pursuits including trout fishing, swimming, tennis, snowshoeing, pond hockey, hiking, biking, gardening, plus nearby riding, golfing, and skiing. The property includes room for a car collection and has its own private wine warehouse – a collector’s haven. The main house and related outbuildings can host an impressive number of guests to enjoy all these pursuits in a beautiful natural environment. The property attracts an impressive array of wildlife from wild turkeys to deer to waterfowl and an inspiring mix of song birds. All the wildlife is attracted to the custom feeders placed between the main terrace and the trout pond below. The property is also known for its organic on-site produced maple syrup. There is also room for a full horse facility if one desires.

The Lands – Over 160 acres

Just imagine being able to assemble over 160 acres in Belfountain!

Without question, this is the finest country offering available. Hawk Ridge Farm, is unmatched in terms of natural beauty, quality of infrastructure and proximity to Toronto (under 1 hour).

Recently upgraded to the highest standards, the main residence is sited to overlook the deep trout pond and to take advantage of the distant countryside views over the Forks of the Credit Valley. The interiors have just completed a major redesign with input from top designers.

A few of the highlights include: Mahogany windows, wall-to-wall walk-outs and sprawling stone terrace allow one to constantly enjoy the natural setting.  Nine intricately framed fireplaces, plaster crown moulding, impressive ceiling heights combine to enhance the principal spaces. A dramatic two-storey foyer with a stately oak staircase creates an impressive introduction and reminds one of the grand lodges of Europe.  The living room is anchored with a fireplace at either end and is a perfect room for entertaining. The 2-storey family room is located at the east end of the home and has custom stained-glass accent windows, a walk-out to the terrace and barrel ceiling. The kitchen includes a pantry, fireplace and servery and is perfectly situated alongside the dining room. The kitchen can be either open to the dining room offering views over the property or can be closed off for more formal occasions. The sumptuous master suite features a fireplace, twin dressing rooms, his and her en-suite baths and a private terrace. The walk-out lower level offers your own in-home spa including exercise studio, indoor/outdoor pool, steam room, and changing facilities.

Additional buildings include a Gate House, a luxury Coach House apartment, a Guest Cottage across the driveway from the main house, and a Guest Loft Apartment over the garden garage near the main house.
