This architecturally designed stone and cedar home is situated on 5 acres of land in the historic Crooks’ Hollow area above Dundas, Ontario. It was custom built over 20 years ago by a local stonemason and builders. A spacious circular treelined driveway leads to the home and adjoining cottage. An arched, flagstone front porch is anchored by four decorative pillars.
Newly finished in 2014, the custom eat-in kitchen comes equipped with energy saving double convection ovens, induction cooktop, & a cherry clad Jenn-air refrigerator. The matching floor to ceiling cherry cabinetry has crown moulding and quartz counters. Porcelain tiled flooring and energy efficient LED ceiling lights lead to a fully equipped ground floor laundry room and two-piece bathroom. Basement is semi-finished with separated private office with heated floors.
Sunken living room with hardwood flooring opens through double doors to a fully screened-in porch overlooking the gardens. These gardens have many perennials which provide texture and colour throughout the year. A large dining room shares the see-through wood burning fireplace and is clad in granite.
Top of the line tilt and turn windows provide abundant light throughout and custom finishes add to the quality of this country home. There are 3 bedrooms on the second level. Master bedroom offers built-in cabinetry and a four piece ensuite with heated floor, soaker tub, LED potlights and separate glassed-in shower. One other large bedroom offers a bathroom with walk-in shower.
A separate cottage adjoins the main house and has a lofted bedroom area, full bathroom, galley-style kitchen area and sliding doors to a private cedar deck. Ideal for in laws or home office. Basement is unfinished but has washer and dryer laundry area.
This property is ideally situated for its proximity and accessibility to all hospitals, universities and schools in the Hamilton area. It also provides a lifestyle to those who enjoy hiking, biking, natural habitats and the waterfalls and ravines of the area.
