1396 PROGRESTON Road

Set on 8.2 acres, this private equestrian estate offers a rare combination of country living, timeless character, modern comfort and remarkable versatility. At its heart is a fully finished Victorian brick farmhouse featuring a newer kitchen, cozy living room with wood-burning fireplace, four second-floor bedrooms, two upstairs bathrooms including an ensuite, and a newly updated third-floor suite with its own 3-piece ensuite, fireplace and dedicated heating and cooling. A separate-entry one-bedroom in-law suite provides added flexibility and income potential. The event-ready barn features eight horse stalls and a tack room below, with direct access to sandy paddocks and a grassy riding arena, while a private hiking and horseback-riding trail winds through the acreage to Bronte Creek. The backyard offers a deck, oversized gazebo, swimming spa, sauna and peaceful creek views. Gated grounds with approximately 480 feet of aluminum fencing offering added privacy, while barn-mounted solar panels provide an additional income stream. Modern improvements include upgraded 200-amp electrical and hydro service, an efficient heavy-duty heat pump and two EV charging stations. The seller's preferred arrangement is a leaseback of the barn and associated equestrian areas for the continued operation of the existing business. Alternatively, buyers interested in acquiring both the property and established equestrian business can purchase the business at an additional negotiated price. The seller is also open to alternative arrangements between these options on mutually agreed-upon terms. A distinctive opportunity to enjoy acreage, equestrian living, recreation and income potential within one exceptional country estate. (id:53361)
