If you are looking for luxury, privacy and a grand setting for entertaini­ng extravagan­zas, this 41- acre property and more t han 8,000- square- foot house is for you. “Step through a stone portico into the grand chateau. It has a 72-ft.-long great hall under a ceiling that’s 35 feet high,” says listing agent Wayne Baguley of Royal LePage RCR Realty. “Or take the elevator to a 1,200- sq.- ft. music hall, where an evening of musical entertainm­ent can be enjoyed by 110 guests — or 60 can dine by the 10- footwide stone fireplace.”

For quiet times, the thirdfloor loft provides a retreat that’s ideal for reading, painting or sculpting, he says. Cre- ative types will enjoy all the home’s inspiring spaces.

The kitchen has a U-shaped island and walls of glass that offer views of the backyard. A pantry has plenty of storage space so ingredient­s are always on hand for drop-in guests.

The lower level has a walkout to a big rectangula­r pool for swimming laps or lounging on an inflatable raft. A two- level stone patio has a barbecue and a fire pit.

The grand home, named Chateau Windrush, is perched at the end of a country road and has sweeping views of wooded ravines, winding country lanes and rolling landscape. “There are phenomenal views where you can see for miles and miles cross rolling hills and trees,” Baguley says. “The whole house is unique and everything is top-quality throughout.”

A cool miniature railway line runs along side part of the long driveway and will occupy kids of all ages for hours.

Guests and f amily will enjoy the tennis/ basketball court, or a hike along the property’s rolling pathways. In winter, the land offers cross- country skiing and an open-air ice rink.

Skiing is nearby at Hockley Valley Resort and the Mansfield Ski Club. When it’s time for a vacation or a business trip, it’s 15 minutes by helicopter to Pearson Internatio­nal Airport, Baguley says.
