A Rare Hidden Gem in Southeast Burlington
Welcome to one of Burlington’s most remarkable and private residential properties — over 2 acres of tranquility tucked quietly in the heart of the city. Hidden down a secret laneway off Lakeshore Road, this extraordinary estate is the last remaining portion of the original 100-acre Rosehill Farm — a truly irreplaceable setting.
Nestled beside the serene Appleby Creek, the grounds offer complete privacy and natural beauty, with old growth trees, winding valley trails, the ruins of a stone footbridge, and a family fire pit where generations can gather beside the creek. In the spring, you can even fish for trout — a rare privilege in a residential setting.
This secluded retreat features a circular driveway, creating an elegant welcome that leads you into a setting that feels more like a country estate than city living. Whether you’re strolling under the canopy of mature trees, listening to the babbling creek, or relaxing by the fire, this property is a peaceful escape just minutes from urban conveniences.
One of the largest privately owned residential parcels south of Dundas Street, this is a once-in-ageneration opportunity to own a virtual sanctuary in one of Burlington’s most desirable areas.
The home itself has been extensively renovated and sits in one of Burlington’s most desirable southeast neighborhoods. It features a gourmet kitchen with marble and quartz countertops, a large island, and professional-grade built-in appliances. The main and second floors showcase quarter sawn white oak hardwood flooring and tile throughout. There are three spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with an ensuite. The home offers two separate living or family room spaces, each with walkouts — one to a covered deck and one to the pool area — along with a spacious dining room.
Custom cabinetry in the foyer, kitchen, laundry room, dining room, and primary bathroom keeps the space both practical and refined. An oversized detached garage (25’ x 28’) with a new epoxy floor completed in 2024 offers ample space for vehicles, storage, or a workshop. The backyard features an oversized, in-ground gunite pool in a very private setting — the perfect place for summer relaxation and outdoor entertaining.
