Description
Celebrated Canadian designer Sarah Richardson did a top to bottom renovation on this unique 1906 Methodist church to turn it into a stunning and calm, contemporary country home. In the rustic farming community of Glen Huron, the property is close to Osler Bluff and Devil’s Glen private ski clubs and minutes from the bustling town of Creemore, with Collingwood a short distance away. On 3/4 acre, surrounded by farmland and golden winter wheat, the home embraces the original towering gothic windows and arches to give an airy and utterly peaceful atmosphere. It is being sold turnkey with all decor, furnishings, rugs, even the dishes and bedding so you can just bring a suitcase and begin your new life here. The nicely configured main floor celebrates the home’s roots with charm and style. Through the most amazing, towering archway, enter the magical sun room/living area with soaring ceilings. The room is surrounded by windows and views, with luxurious custom draperies adding warmth and style. Exit from the sunroom to either of the two decks for evenings of relaxation and star gazing. The stunning kitchen is flanked by tall gothic arched windows and couldn’t be more fresh. The room has its own small desk and sitting area with two cosy arm chairs for morning coffee and a dining area with wood burning fireplace. The main floor den is a perfect work-from-home space with double pocket doors for privacy when needed. A bedroom is also on this floor. Upstairs is a king primary bedroom with beautiful ensuite and so many little touches. On the super functional lower level is a lovely tv/family room with two more beautifully decorated bedrooms as well as a nursery. Even a few stained glass touches remain to blend the old with its modern revival. Outside, enjoy hiking and snowshoeing on numerous hiking trails, the closest of which is just 100 yards away.
