Built in 2009, this beautiful, open-concept house
on 98 acres of Erin countryside offers stunning
views in all directions year-round. The architect's
design concept was to bring the outdoors into the
house through extensive use of retractable
glazing. While thoroughly modern with its heated
concrete floors and exposed steel elements, it
maintains the warmth and texture of the country
through ipe siding, stone masonry, Douglas fir
ceilings, massive fireplace, and other rustic details
(like the kitchen’s center island built from
reclaimed wine vats). Advanced details like
radiant floors, geothermal heating and cooling,
low emissivity glazing, PU-foamed wall cavities,
commercial-grade reflective membrane roof, and
dimmable fluorescent lighting make it energy
efficient, as well. Located just one hour from
downtown Toronto.
