1 / 93Listing description
Welcome to a turn-key homestead or market garden on nearly 10 acres in Deep Merville-a village-like community known for its quiet roads, welcoming neighbours, and strong local connection. This rare property offers privacy, productivity, and real agricultural potential-ideal for families, small-scale farmers, or anyone dreaming of a more intentional lifestyle. At the heart of the property is a warm and spacious 3-level home with exposed beams, a cozy wood stove, and an open-concept layout.
The generous kitchen looks out over the growing beds and is filled with natural light and possibility. The updated 5-piece bathroom adds comfort, and whitewashed tongue-and-groove ceilings run throughout, giving the home character and warmth. With seven bedrooms and four bathrooms, there's flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or income potential.
Downstairs, the mostly finished basement includes an in-law suite and a dedicated grow room complete with shelving and lights, with room to expand. The land is fully equipped for a working market garden or homestead. You'll find established landscape-fabric beds, a greenhouse, and a commercial-grade processing setup: walk-in cooler with CoolBot system, bubbler, and electric spinner.
Irrigation is powered by a high-pressure pump drawing from a 15-foot-deep dugout. Market tents, bins, and display gear are included. A large barn supports multiple animal types, and a drive shed-with an enclosed unfinished cabin-is perfect for storage or your next project.
Several outbuildings, including a workshop and Quonset hut, provide storage and workspace. Infrastructure for up to 150 chickens is in place, with nearby cleared forest perfect for rotational or woodland pasture. For a showing, call or text 778-585-3702
