Description
Tucked away in prestigious Old Ancaster, 608 Highvalley Road is a 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offering 2,469 sq ft above grade plus a finished 1,284 sq ft basement - privacy, timeless elegance, and everyday convenience just minutes from historic Ancaster Village. Set on an extraordinary lot with approximately 207 feet of backyard depth and framed by mature greenery, this is a rare, secluded retreat where morning coffee and quiet evenings feel a world away. Inside, a dramatic two-storey foyer with soaring ceilings and hardwood floors sets the tone. Coffered ceilings, a skylight, and bay windows fill the main level with light, a main floor powder room adds convenience, and the chef's kitchen - granite counters, stainless steel appliances, farmhouse sink, and an oversized island - overlooks the backyard with walkout patio access. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms include a primary retreat with private ensuite, plus a second full bathroom. Three fireplaces add warmth throughout, and the finished basement offers a guest room plus flexible space for a home office or recreation. A double car garage - wired for EV charging - and an extended driveway with parking for up to 4 additional vehicles complete the package. Steps to Rousseau Elementary, minutes to the Bruce Trail, waterfalls, golf, shopping, and Highway 403 for an easy GTA commute - this is established Old Ancaster living at its best.
