About this home

Tucked away in the heart of the Carolinian Forest, this hidden gem offers a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful riverside living just minutes from Cambridge, Paris, Brantford, and the charming hamlet of Glen Morris. Situated on approximately half an acre, this cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage is surrounded by nature, with the Cambridge-to-Paris Rail Trail at your doorstep and the Grand River just steps away. Enjoy your morning coffee on the spacious deck while taking in the sights and sounds of the forest. Spend your days hiking, cycling, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, or simply exploring the natural beauty that surrounds you. Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast, nature lover, or someone looking for a quiet escape from the city, this property offers the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of. Perfect as a weekend retreat, four-season cottage, or year-round residence, this property provides the feeling of being miles away from it all while remaining within easy reach of city amenities. Located less than an hour from Hamilton, Kitchener-Waterloo, Guelph, Woodstock, and Oakville, it’s an ideal getaway without the long drive. A truly unique opportunity to own your own private retreat in one of Southwestern Ontario’s most scenic natural settings. Limited Views of the Grand River during the winter months.
