4215 ENNISCLARE DRIVE

Buy acreage in rural Milton and you own what sits inside your fence. Everything past the tree line belongs to someone else, and eventually someone else has plans for it. Ennisclare Woods was built differently.

29 homes, and the 90 acres of woodland wrapped around them are owned by those 29 as tenants in common, registered on title. This property carries 2. 7 acres of its own and a share of those 90.

The trails through the woods are private. The tree line cannot be logged, severed or developed. The share transfers with the house.

Inside the fence: a 6,000 sq ft spring-fed pond with fountain, fruit tree orchard, 2 vegetable gardens, automated irrigation, and an 830 sq ft split-level cedar deck with gazebo, built-in BBQ, side burner, sink and outdoor sound. Powered equipment shed. Three car garage plus circular drive for over six vehicles.

The house was built in 2004 and finished to 6,200 sq ft by owners who thought hard about every room. Main floor: 9 ft ceilings, red maple hardwood, an octagonal piano conservatory, separate living, dining and family rooms, double-sided wood-burning fireplace, coffered dining ceiling, office. Cherry and granite kitchen with island, 2 pantries, oversized propane cooktop, dual ovens and commercial range hood.

5 bedrooms and 5 baths (3 full baths off an oval gallery). Primary with walk-in closet, walk-in shower and 2-person Jacuzzi Roman tub. Guest suite with its own ensuite.

2 bedrooms share a balcony. 1 bedroom is currently fitted as a 120" home theatre. Second-floor laundry.

The 2,200 sq ft lower level runs 9 ft ceilings over heated slate: sports room, bar, rec room, audiophile room, ATMOS 11. 1 theatre with 140" screen, stone and mahogany wine cellar with temperature and humidity control and its own tasting room, hobby room, cold storage, full bath with travertine shower and vertical spa.
