Located in south Mono, only five minutes to all amenities in Orangeville, and 5 Minutes to Hockley Valley Golf & Resort, this stunning country estate bungalow, with totally finished walkout basement, has been tastefully upgraded with the finest quality of workmanship.
In an area of custom executive homes on a private cul de sac with paved road access, this property has an outstanding 2.05 acre lot with amazing views, towering evergreens, conservation bush at side and rear and an ever-flowing stream. Wild turkeys, deer, and many varieties of birds are your neighbors, as well as 11 other families on the street!
This well-maintained 2+1 bedroom, 3.5 bath bungalow with 3-car garage was originally built with R2000 specifications and is approximately 21 years old.
Over the last six years major upgrades were done by the present owner including stone pillars at front entry with rough-in for intercom and gate, pot lighting at front, coach lamps, Muskoka stone exterior, professionally landscaped rear yard with Permacon interlocking patio, natural stone steps to gazebo (roughed-in wiring underground), remote awnings, and a cedar wood shed, plus the addition of many more mature evergreens. There is a long paved driveway with extra parking by the 3-car garage.
Lovely perennial gardens are found in the front with a walkway to the beautiful new entry door which welcomes you into the Foyer with travertine floors, crown mouldings and pot lighting.
The Dining Room is open concept and has Alder wood hand-scraped flooring, wainscoting and a stunning custom built-in solid cherry wood china cabinet with a granite top, severy with electrical outlets and original designed leaded glass inserts.

There is a French door entry to the Laundry Room with a built-in bench, and a 2-piece Powder Room, as well as garage access.
Off the Kitchen is the cozy Sun Room with heated floors and walk out, which doubles as an eating area and special place for “bird and nature” watching overlooking the rear grounds with gorgeous countryside views to the southwest.
No expense was spared on the custom built Library with distressed antique pine cabinetry with bookshelves, desk, and waffle ceiling with pot lights as well as hardwood flooring.
