| Half a kilometre from the road and situated on prime urban fringe, Kraft House unfolds across 40 private acres of rolling fields and mature trees, including more than 30 acres under crop and a border with GRCA-protected greenspace. A paved drive leads to a thoughtfully reimagined modern farmhouse, where a full-length porch welcomes morning light and the three-season sunroom and pool terrace capture evening sunsets. Deer and wild turkeys are daily visitors. More than $1.5 million invested over the past decade has transformed the home through extensive renovations and a considered addition. Inside, expansive windows illuminate hand-scraped Canadian hickory floors and open-concept living spaces. A stone-mantled fireplace grounds the family room, while a dining room, butler's pantry, and chef's kitchen with generous island and custom lighting make entertaining feel effortless. The main-floor principal suite features a sunlit bay window and direct access to the three-season sunroom. A skylit office and new foyer add versatility and presence; the architecturally designed entrance portico features a gabled metal roof, substantial columns, and exposed timber detailing. A walk-in pantry, laundry, and three-piece bath complete the level. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a full bath and dedicated laundry. The finished lower level offers a recreation room, wet bar, bedroom and bath. Above the three-car garage, a bright loft with floor-to-ceiling windows is ideal for a gym. A 1,200-square-foot heated workshop with 12- and 8-foot bay doors accommodates vehicles, boats, and equipment. Outdoors, a 20-by-40-foot concrete pool with waterfall, fire pit and mature treescape invites long afternoons and sunset gatherings. Just beyond the city limits and less than ten minutes from St. John's-Kilmarnock School and Waterloo Regional Airport, Kraft House offers rare privacy without sacrificing proximity to Kitchener, Waterloo and Breslau. |
