Highlights ♥

Positioned at the entrance to the prestigious Georgian Woodlands development with a distinctive mountain estate atmosphere, this home is situated on a unique premium 1-acre lot. Nestled within an enclave of forest, ferns, with a cascading stream bed and a seasonal view of the bay, Blue Mountain Serenity is a calm refuge for busy families.

The heart of the home is of handcrafted Scandinavian full-scribe cut log construction, flanked with newer timber frame additions. Scandinavian Full-Scribe describes smoothly-peeled logs which are custom-fitted to one another and notched where they overlap at the corners. This kind of handcrafted log construction is a method of precisely marking where to cut each individual wall log along the entire length and in the corners. A high degree of craftsmanship is required for success in this method and the resulting tight fit of naturally-shaped logs gives the home great aesthetic appeal.

The home offers 4,976 sq. ft. of masterfully finished living space including 8 bedrooms (with the 8th currently set up as a multi-functional media room and home office), 4 baths, a spacious custom kitchen and dining area perfect for any sized family.

Three distinct gathering areas include a grand-scale great room with a stately gas fireplace, a more intimate living room with a central woodburning fireplace served by a firewood elevator and on the main floor, a cozy reading nook opposite a wood stove.

The main floor suite could function as a self-contained apartment with two bedrooms, a renovated bathroom, its own new and modern kitchen, laundry and infrared sauna. Accessed via a private entrance or the main foyer, this lovely living space is perfect for in-laws and/or visiting guests.

The views from this enchanting home delight from every window but are particularly captivating from the balcony and wraparound decking. The back deck overlooks forested hillside, deep green and steep, with an enchanting natural cascade cut from eons of year-round flow from the Niagara Escarpment down to Georgian Bay. Whether you enjoy this view from the hot tub, with a book, with your morning coffee or evening glass of wine, when you return indoors you’ll be remarkably more relaxed.

Exterior Features of the Property

The longevity and strength of logs is evidenced in the well-built log structures of Norway and Russia, which are still standing proud and true after more than 800 years. Log homes are very efficient because of the thermal mass of the logs. A well-built log home is typically cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Condo Highlights ♥

Located at 220 Gord Canning Drive, Unit #542, the Hemingway Suite is known as one of the most luxurious, spacious and immaculately maintained condos at the Westin Trillium House, Blue Mountain. This enchanting 3 bedroom, 3 bath home or vacation retreat overlooks Mill Pond’s nature trail and provides stunning panoramic views of the Niagara Escarpment, ski hills, village and, glimmering in the near distance, Lighthouse Point and Georgian Bay.

Beyond the full kitchen, breakfast bar and dining area, the elegant parabolic living room invites and inspires with gas fireplace and stunning floor-to-18-foot-ceiling windows. Two of the bedrooms have luxurious ensuite baths with soaker tubs and one also has a glass-doored shower. The 3rd bath, with an additional glass-doored shower, is convenient to the 3rd bedroom. All three bedrooms look out onto incredible views and are fully furnished. Valet parking to the heated underground garage, a ski locker, and access to all amenities including outdoor heated pool, hot tub, fitness room, and sauna. Share unforgettable sunsets from the balcony or while enjoying world-class cuisine at Oliver and Bonicini’s Restaurant down in the lobby.

Adding to the cachet of Suite 542 is the fact that it has never been entered into the rental pool and in fact, it has been enjoyed for years by its owner Robin Sharma, renowned Canadian leadership expert and writer of The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari series, The Saint, the Surfer, and the CEO and many others. Sharma’s books on leadership and peak performance have sold over 15,000,000 copies in 75+ Countries. It’s also interesting to note that “Hemingway Suite” is one of only two units at the Westin Trillium House with 3 bedrooms.

Sharma initially chose the suite for its unbeatable convenience to ski school and four-season family fun and later as a perfect hideaway where he in part wrote his latest international bestseller “The 5 a.m. Club”.
