If the privacy of a country estate is your dream, it can now come true -- in a rich natural environment that is also part of one of the most desirable communities in our region.
Salem Springs presents a rare opportunity to own a secluded home site of approximately one acre, as well as sharing private ownership of riverbank lands that will enhance your privacy and enjoyment.
This unique property offers the best of everything:
- about a 15-minute drive from Waterloo on a top-quality road
- only a few blocks from the recreational, cultural and social activities of the vibrant community of Salem, Elora and Fergus
- nestled along the beautiful forested valley of the Irvine River, complete with its own rapids and mini-gorge; and
- a high ridge for your home site, with carefully protected views of the river below
Only a very limited number of lots will ever be available in this one-of-a-kind location. Strict controls will be in place to guarantee that your home will continue to be surrounded by a natural paradise.
Architectural guidelines will ensure that all homes are of the appropriate size and fully compatible with the site.
A unique form of condominium ownership will provide you with exclusive control on your own lot, while also giving you a share of the land along the river bank as well as a share of the private road into this exclusive neighbourhood.
The result for each owner at Salem Springs will be an estate within an estate; your own private acre, within a protected community of a small number of like-minded discerning home-owners. Every home will be well separated from its neighbours, shielded by trees, and each will have easy access to trails through the community's areas of shared ownership.
Mature conifers - particularly cedars and pines - create a world of green that will relax and inspire you in any season. This is where the Irvine River begins to show its strength on its way to Elora Gorge and its junction with the Grand River in the heart of Elora.
All the pleasures of urban life and convenient, while you enjoy your private retreat in an environment that surpasses most cottage settings.
Peace and serenity mark the lifestyle offered here at Salem Springs. This distinctive and unique property is surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty on all sides. The calming sounds of nature and the enchanting vista of the meandering Irvine River create a respite for active lives.
