Description from owner
Description
I designed this home taking into consideration the true south direction, the angle of the roof (pagoda style) for the benefits of passive solar heating in the winter and cooling effects in the summer and the windows for natural ventilation and 360-degree views. It was built after in-depth research, with loving care and value of workmanship, assisted by skilled craftsmen and myself to create a sanctuary for man and beast alike. Stones from the fence rows handpicked for the mosaic look of the 10-foot high hearth, cedar, and pine from the forest for the board/baton siding of the house and barn and cedar rails for the fences. The fields and forested areas have not been sprayed with any chemicals in more than 15 years, similarly, there are no properties near Phoenix Farm that are not organic in nature. The 1545 sq.ft. home is heated by one very efficient Pacific Energy woodstove upstairs, and downstairs a very large sized Drolet woodstove. As well, there is a propane furnace if nights get very chilly upstairs. The water heater and stove are powered by propane. There is a laptop computer here for your use with WIFI accessibility on the property. Closet space and pantry space for your ease of operation during your stay together with grocery stores being only 5 minutes away, allows you to spend more time relaxing and winding down on your vacation.
The water from the tap is better than bottled water in that it was tested in Toronto and proved to be free from iron, sulphur and calcium. Friends and family bring containers to the farm to carry away the pure water.

Response from the owner Thank you for the glowing review. Looking forward to your further inquiries and comments all the amenities including the basement suite which is almost finished that features an extra suite with a jacuzzi soaking tub. My prices are a guideline for visitors.
