Richard's Notes
The Region
For the “uninitiated” to Canada, Niagara-on-the-Lake (www.NiagaraontheLake.com; www.NOTL.com), is noted for its world-class wineries, boutiques, gourmet eateries, hotels and, of course, home of the international renowned Shaw Festival (www.ShawFest.com).
It has secured as a popular spot for Torontonians (1.5 hour drive) as well as the World because of its proximity to Niagara Falls and the U.S. Borders.
The Estate
Unique. A timeless design with a hint of seventies retro – on 5.25 acres with a large pond, Gazebo and a detached Garage. Definitely majestic and awe inspiring with tons of carved black walnut gracing the interiors. It is at once a very private cocoon and spatially expansive. Grand Foyer with soaring ceiling and a Great Room with two levels and a private "Die Herren Ecke" (the Gentleman's Corner). Suitable for entertaining or "home office" environments as well as "in-laws" dwelling with minor modifications.
