The dramatic two-storey dining room draws in natural light and frames breathtaking Eramosa River views. Two screened porches overlook the water, while the rooftop patio, enclosed by 2.5-foot-thick stone walls, is an unforgettable place to entertain. Upstairs, a loft-style family room with wood fireplace overlooks the mill pond. Greenhouse-style windows form part of the passive solar design, while the third-level open loft offers river views and space for an office or studio. A separate two-bedroom in-law suite offers its own entrance, parking, open-concept living space and four-piece bathroom. Set on 0.54 acres with 275 feet of Eramosa River frontage on two sides, the property includes a rushing dam, original mill race and upper and lower riverbeds.
