About This Property

THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE HOUSE RENTAL OPPORTUNITY! This 4 BR, 3 bath, approx 3000 sq ft 2 storey century stone farmhouse with attached 2 bay garage is your opportunity to enjoy living on a private 4 acre lot situated 10 min north of Guelph and 5 min south of Fergus. The tree lined driveway, gated entrance and trees around the property perimeter provide privacy and shelter from the road. The house has been updated throughout; featuring 200 amp electrical service, updated windows, energy efficient geothermal ground source forced air heating & cooling, 3 updated bathrooms, main floor laundry, main floor office/library and a main floor primary bedroom with 4 pc ensuite. The large eat-in country kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances and centre island. But best of all is the exposed stone wall feature found in both the kitchen and TV rooms. All the conveniences of a modern home but set in a century home setting complete with wide pine plank floors, deep windows, amazing baseboards and crown mouldings, and tin ceilings! Downstairs is a large rec room complete with propane fireplace. But that's not all! For the hobbiest, check out the detached 20' x 40' workshop which is divided into 2 sections - a 20' x 16' insulated workshop with 100 amp electrical service and a 20'x24' storage area with garage door to house your boat, snowmobile, trailer or whatever your storage needs might be. There is also a detached 18'x30' stone barn set up as an insulated studio, complete with an overhead loft space - a unique setting for an at home business, painter or potter's studio, art gallery - so many possible uses. This is a perfect setup for perhaps a visiting professor & family, or new professionals moving to the Guelph/Fergus area; or perhaps someone looking to downsize from farm life without having to leave a country atmosphere. Property is unfurnished except for kitchen and laundry appliances. Min 1 year term preferred, immediate possession upon seller approval. **EXTRAS** Tenant responsible for all utility expenses, lawn/garden maintenance, snow removal & rodent management
