1010 Kilmarnock Road S

Exceptional New Price. Some homes reveal their magic the moment you step through the door. From the outside, 1010 Kilmarnock Road has the welcoming simplicity of a classic country home; inside, the effect is wonderfully unexpected. A breathtaking 21'7" vaulted living and dining space, soaring walls of windows and an airy mezzanine create a home filled with light, openness and connection to nature. Built just three years ago, this thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers an open-concept kitchen, dining and living area ideal for both everyday life and entertaining. Upstairs, the generous primary bedroom and adjoining loft-style family room create a private retreat, while two main-floor bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests or a home office. Outside, nearly 3 private acres invite you to slow down and enjoy the setting. A newly created woodland trail winds through the trees to a secluded clearing overlooking the water-an idyllic spot for morning coffee, a firepit or quiet retreat, with potential for a future studio or cabin subject to approvals. Approximately 1,000 feet of natural shoreline borders a quiet, sheltered offshoot of the Rideau River. This creates a naturally peaceful, wildlife-rich habitat, ideal for birdwatching, photography, kayaking and nature lovers. A seasonal boating channel has previously been maintained, and future owners may explore dock and channel possibilities subject to required approvals. All this just minutes from charming Merrickville, known as the 'Jewel of the Rideau," with its boutiques, galleries, cafés, restaurants, historic stone buildings and Rideau Canal locks. A remarkable, light-filled country home offering privacy, acreage, nature and possibilities - at exceptional value. (id:28469)
