431 MEADOWVIEW ROAD — Kawartha Lakes (Emily), Ontario

Set high on a hilltop with sweeping views over surrounding farmland, this 2,528 sq ft stone and vinyl board-and-batten bungalow makes an impression before you reach the door, with covered porches front and back. The open-concept main floor centres on a masonry fireplace with propane insert. The custom kitchen features granite and quartz counters, stainless appliances, and an oversized island, with room for a full dining suite. The primary suite sits privately at one end with ensuite and walk-in closet; three more bedrooms occupy a separate wing sharing a five-piece bath. Off the garage entry: a laundry room and two-piece bath. The finished walk-out basement adds a huge family room with wood stove and walkout, a gym/flex room, and a four-piece bath. A generous mudroom - accessed from inside or up from the triple garage - keeps chore-day mess from the home. Ground source heating delivers efficient, consistent comfort year-round. The land is a working asset: of 95 acres, roughly 90 are workable and tile drained, with a 5-acre hardwood bush at the back. A drilled well delivers excellent supply. The pole barn is livestock-ready - set up for horses with a tack room and two stalls, and equipped for cattle with 85 outdoor headrail feeding spaces, 12 locking headgates under roof, and a heated waterbowl - with room for machinery and hay storage. A solar contract averaging approximately $10,000/year, five years remaining, adds passive income from day one. Positioned on a paved country road between Lindsay and Peterborough, the location offers straightforward highway access with the peace and privacy that make a property like this worth having. Throughout, the home is designed for the realities of country living - quiet space and everyday bustle kept comfortably apart, with mudroom and barn-clothes traffic routed away from the living areas. It's a build that handles chore-day mess and family life with equal ease. (id:63357)
