About the Listing 285448 -
Welcome to a rare 5.36-acre hobby farm and country retreat on a quiet Fort Erie road, minutes from the QEW. This beautifully updated brick farmhouse delivers the rural lifestyle Niagara buyers are searching for: private acreage, mature woods, a private pond with a dock, and walking trails just behind the property that wind through forest and across streams. Paddock areas, raised box gardens, fruit trees, a livestock shed, and chicken and guinea coops mean the property is move-in ready for homesteading, hobby farming, horses, or simply room to breathe. Inside, warm and light-filled living spaces are anchored by a striking two-storey family room with catwalk and a cozy main-floor sitting room with woodstove, perfect for quiet mornings with a book. Large windows pour natural light and scenic views into every season, from sunrise coffee on the back deck to autumn walks toward the Niagara River Parkway and winter evenings skating on your own pond. For the workshop or hobbyist, a recently built 28x40 detached garage with 60-amp service, poured concrete floor and foundation walls offer serious storage and shop space. Extensive updates deliver true peace of mind: steel roof (2020), most windows replaced, new back slider, new side deck and covered porch, WETT-certified main-floor fireplace (2022), updated copper wiring and plumbing, generator hookup with surge protection, pump and pressure tanks, and backup sump pump. The home offers 3+1 bedrooms and 2 full plus 2 half bathrooms, with a renovated primary and two more bedrooms upstairs, plus a main-floor bedroom for guests or multigenerational flexibility. Location is the rare part: 3 minutes to the QEW, 7 to shopping, 16 to Costco, and just over 20 to St. Catharines. This is rural-luxury acreage living without the trade-offs, the kind of Fort Erie country property where every season brings something to love.
