A rare offering on one of the most coveted lots in The National Estates. Set on a full acre with 280 ft of frontage and panoramic views over The National Golf Club of Canada, this 8,900 sq ft residence is approached through a circular motor court and announced by a grand stone facade, framed by old-growth trees for complete privacy. Custom built with a sound structure, generous ceiling heights, and the craftsmanship of an uncompromising era. Three storeys include a principal suite with two walk-in dressing rooms and a spa-scaled ensuite, four additional bedrooms with ensuite footprints, and an 890 sq ft loft with a sauna. 7 full and 3 half baths. Over 13,000 sq ft of total living space. Various sections have been professionally remediated and are ready for renovation. The 4,300 sq ft walkout lower level suits an entertainer's floor: espresso bar, game room, home theatre, gym, massage studio, and wellness area. Outside, an 870 sq ft modern cabana with a gourmet kitchen, wood-burning pizza oven, and steam shower bath anchors the inground pool with golf course views. A detached garage with a finished loft awaits your vision: a teenager's retreat, golf simulator, or art studio. Garage parking for 6 vehicles, with potential for 8. At the gateway to the Estates, with easy access to transit and major routes, top private schools, boutique shopping, and fine dining. A rare confluence of irreplaceable setting, exceptional bones, and the freedom to make it your own. The virtual tour includes AI-generated room transformations as renovation concepts only, showing how upgrades could look in the existing spaces. These concepts do not reflect the current condition and are not included in the sale. Buyers should rely on personal inspection and verify renovation feasibility with qualified professionals.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1580/sqft, this property is priced above the Vaughan average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 52 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Vaughan. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Vaughan are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Larger Home Realities
At 5,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 7 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Vaughan.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 7 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
