Hidden within the hills of Mono, this custom stone bungalow offers the kind of privacy and natural beauty that's increasingly hard to find. Set on 7.81 acres surrounded by mature trees, walking trails, perennial gardens, and a pond, the property feels more like a retreat than a residence while still remaining within easy reach of Shelburne, Orangeville and commuter routes. Offering 5000+ sqft of total living space, the home was designed to feel spacious without losing its warmth. Oversized windows throughout constantly pull in views of the surrounding landscape, while cherry hardwood floors and a stone fireplace add a grounded, inviting feel. The kitchen was designed for both gathering and everyday living with built-in JennAir appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, walk-in pantry, hot water tap, motion-sensor under-cabinet lighting, and a bright breakfast area overlooking the property. Nearby, the living room becomes a natural place to unwind with its wood-burning fireplace and expansive windows framing the outdoors. The main level also features a formal dining room, spacious primary suite with ensuite, additional bedrooms, and practical laundry/mudroom access from the 3 car garage. Covered porches create peaceful places to enjoy morning coffee, quiet evenings, and the changing seasons. The finished lower level offers exceptional flexibility with an expansive rec room, wine cellar/cold storage, additional bedrooms, and a functional in-law/nanny suite complete with its own kitchen and living area. Outside, limestone landscaping, interlocking patio space, forested trails, and the pond complete the property's peaceful atmosphere. Thoughtful updates including shingles, propane furnace, rebuilt chimney, water heater, and septic maintenance provide peace of mind while allowing the setting itself to remain the true focal point.
