Welcome to one of the most historic grand homes in Eastern Ontario. Just minutes east of Lancaster sits Ridgewood Manor a sprawling 1850 estate sitting on 24 acres of manicured grounds and forested privacy. The home is truly a step back in time. The brick and stone building features inlayed hardwoods, oak trimmed walls, and towering ceilings – they just don’t build them like this anymore – can’t be over stated. All in wonderful condition with the mechanical systems running perfectly. This property is meant to be presented and enjoyed and has been exactly that ... from its first owner a leader in Canada’s judicial system to its current owners; also, community leaders. The spacious eat in kitchen could seat a dozen guests, the dining room … double that, and the 30-foot great room another doubling of guests. Upstairs has enough bed rooms, bathrooms and staff quarters to house extended families or numerous visitors. The grounds include a treed lined drive, heated pool and outbuildings, a 4-vehicle garage and barn on 8 acres with the balance in forest with foot paths. The maple stand is large enough to have a small syrup business in the spring. A true resort feeling abounds. It’s a dream lifestyle about size and quantity located less than an hour’s drive to the exciting City of Montreal.
