A Century-old log home just outside Milton, nestled on the edge of the Escarpment on 11.4 acres. This majestic home, steeped in history & timeless beauty, was meticulously transported piece by piece from an island in the Ottawa Valley. Renowned Ontario architect Mel Shakespeare expertly melded two historic log homes to create this stately residence offering solitude & serenity, strategically situated for breathtaking views of the Toronto skyline & just minutes from amenities. The updated kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring state-of-the-art cabinets, stone & quartz counters, a La Cornue oven, built-in Jenn-Air fridge and freezer, & a large dining area with a panoramic city view. A butler's pantry adds ample cabinetry, a wine fridge, & a beverage fridge. The kitchen retains the charm of the original log home w a wood-burning stove, brick oven, exposed log walls, & original pine wood floors, while modern updates ensure comfort & convenience. The living room features a Rumford-style fireplace, converted to gas for convenience, yet retaining the charm of yesteryear. A large laundry room doubles as an office with stunning built-in cabinetry. The side entry offers a mudroom, 2-pc bathroom, and den. Upstairs, each of the three bdrms has a fully updated ensuite bath, with the primary suite providing a spacious and cozy retreat, generous walk-in closet, custom-built cabinets, and large 4-pc ensuite. The finished basement includes a rec room, 4th bdrm & 3-pc bath, perfect for additional living space or in-law suite with separate entrance. Adjacent from the main house, a 2-car garage made from a third log house includes a loft & basement, providing ample storage and additional functionality. Geothermal energy heats & cools this home. The roof is Enviroshake premium composite, replicating cedar's natural aesthetic w unbeatable performance. This log house is more than a home; it's a living piece of history, waiting for its next chapter.
