A Rare Opportunity to Create Your Dream Home in a Private, Nature-Inspired Setting. YOUR PRIVATE RETREAT. STEPS FROM THE VILLAGE. The property presents an exceptional opportunity for those looking to create something truly special in one of Waterdown's most distinctive settings. Set on approximately .58 acres, this mature, tree-filled property offers the feeling of a private Muskoka retreat while being just steps from the shops, restaurants and everyday conveniences of the village. Nestled within a woodland setting and directly across from the Grindstone Creek Trail, the property is surrounded by nature and offers an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquility. Smokey Hollow Waterfall, the Bruce Trail and the natural beauty of the Grindstone Creek valley are close by, while Burlington, Hamilton, major highways and Aldershot GO are easily accessible. The existing dwelling is being offered in its current condition-the real opportunity is the land and the vision it inspires. Imagine an architecturally designed custom residence surrounded by mature trees, beautiful gardens and exceptional outdoor living spaces. Create a home that is completely your own, thoughtfully positioned to embrace the natural setting and designed around the way you want to live. With approximately 200 feet of frontage and 142 feet of depth, this is an unusually generous parcel in an established village location. The NEC has indicated they are amenable to a new home being constructed on this property. For those who have been searching for privacy, nature and space without giving up village convenience, this is a rare opportunity to build something extraordinary. New Property Survey is available. All home measurements are approximate. Bring your Architect. Bring your vision. Build the home you've always wanted!
