Description
Known locally as "The Bee Barn", this one-of-a-kind property was transformed in 1992 by its current owner - a mixed media artist with exhibitions across Canada and Europe - into a contemporary studio & residence that blends art & everyday living. Comprised of 2 attached but separate ground-floor spaces, each with its own entrance, the property offers a versatile setup: one side designed for creative studio projects & the other as comfortable living quarters. This flexible configuration also presents excellent potential for an in-law suite, guest space, or home-based business. The main level features an open-concept layout with abundant natural light, a principal bedroom with skylight & closet, office nook with loft space & two walkouts to the garden. Upstairs, soaring vaulted ceilings create a dramatic, gallery-like space ideal as a bedroom, family room, entertaining area, or even exhibition space. An attached 2 car Garage & 30 x 13 workshop/shed with concrete floor, electricity, & some insulation provide ample room for storage, hobbies, or projects. A new drilled well (2024) adds peace of mind & modern convenience. Set in the heart of Flesherton, celebrated as both The Gateway to the Beaver Valley and an artists hub, this property offers the rare chance to enjoy a vibrant small-town lifestyle within a community of creatives just 500m from elementary & secondary schools, boutique shops, library, sports facilities & Flesherton Pond with its beach & pavilion - a favorite spot for swimming or fishing. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the nearby Bruce Trail, paddling on Lake Eugenia, skiing at Beaver Valley & Blue Mountain + the many golf courses & x-country trails throughout the region. Amenities are nearby in Markdale & Durham or larger centres like Collingwood, Thornbury & Owen Sound are all within easy reach. More than a home, The Bee Barn offers a flexible & inviting space that combines character, community & convenience in one of Grey County's most welcoming towns.
