About this listing

Seldom does a setting so magical come to market. On the coveted south side of Lakeshore Road, this distinguished residence rests on a private 0.57 acre ravine lot, with mature trees, a winding creek, lake views, and a broad lower lawn that unfolds like a private park in every season. Held by one family for 42 years, the property offers complete privacy, an irreplaceable natural setting, with glimpses of the lake from most rooms. The home itself is a canvas. Generous principal rooms sit atop solid construction and well-maintained mechanical systems, a strong foundation to reimagine, renovate, or design a custom masterpiece worthy of the land it occupies. The residence offers 3,106 square feet above grade, plus 1,095 square feet in the lower level, with a walkout. The upper level features four bedrooms with the rare ability to have two primary suites, ideal for multigenerational living or a growing family. The walkout lower level adds tremendous flexibility as a recreation area, home theatre, gym, or guest quarters, with its separate entrance offering ease for an in-law or nanny suite. Outdoors is where this property truly reveals its intangible magic. An expansive rear deck sits beneath a leafy canopy for dining and entertaining, while the creekside lawn invites both recreation and serenity. Established landscaping, abundant birdlife, and privacy create a park-like retreat just moments from the lake. Within a highly regarded school district and walking distance of Burlington's stunning Paletta Lakefront Park and the Burloak Waterfront Park, it is an exceptional estate with a rare opportunity to create your own legacy in one of Burlington's most established Lakeshore locations.
