FIDDLEHEAD MOUNTIAN INFO:

Fiddlehead Mountain is a year-round private estate whose name was inspired by the incredible number of blooming fiddleheads that appear like a carpet of green over the springtime mountainside.

This truly exceptional 123-acre private hillside estate is located just minutes away from the town of Huntsville in the heart of Muskoka, Ontario’s premier recreational playground.

The Kitchen: A Gourmand’s Dream
Like in all warm country houses, a kitchen is the heart of the home. And the kitchen at Fiddlehead Mountain is no exception. Outfitted with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, a 6-burner gas range and stove, granite counter tops, and fine ceramic tile, this open concept and light-filled kitchen, with an eat-in counter, offers serene views of the mountain. The pantry, which provides ample storage, completes this luxuriously functional gourmet kitchen.

The Dining Room: Welcome a Crowd
From the many windows in the dining room, you will savour the spectacular views of your personal mountain while you gather around your large family friendly table, with seating for up to 12, to share tales of the day’s various adventures. Natural pine adorns the wainscotting and vaulted ceiling of this warm and inviting dining room conveniently situated beside the gourmet kitchen.

The Living Room: A Lounge with a View
The vast space of this most comfortable living room is enhanced by the vaulted, pine-lined ceiling and its wood burning fireplace. You and your guests will revel in the light let in by the massive windows that frame long views across the pool to the mountain green. Sunrises from this room are particularly pleasing. Hardwood floors lead you to the deck or screened-in Muskoka room, and you will be happy to enjoy cooking your evening meal from the elevated BBQ on the deck.

The Muskoka Room: Traditional Comfort
A cozy screened-in Muskoka room leads out to a deck with a BBQ and hot tub, all perfectly situated to take in the fresh mountain air and pastoral scenery. An overhead fan keeps things cool in the summer heat and your easy transition from outdoors to in, will be one of your favourite aspects of this chalet.

The Main Floor Bedrooms: Two with Views
Perfect for family or guests, two generously sized and bright bedrooms are located on the main level of the chalet. Broadloom ensures warmth underfoot in the winter and the large windows offer beautiful year-round views of the surrounding grounds.

A large family room in the bright lower level of the chalet enjoys high ceilings and amazing views down the mountain to the pond and offers a walk-out terrace and pathway to the gardens. A recreation room that includes a billiard table sits adjacent to the family room, while a nearby climate-controlled private wine cellar is the ultimate in luxury living.

THE POTENTIAL: A COMPANY RETREAT, SEVERANCE OR COMMERCIAL USE*

Although Fiddlehead Mountain would make an extraordinary family retreat, the potential for development exists. This historic property was once home to the Huntsville Ski Club where Olympians like Nancy Green trained, and residents of the surrounding area enjoyed their first ski hill when it opened it as Steven’s Hill over 70 years ago. The lot and its ski runs have the potential, to be rezoned back to Commercial, add additional structures to create a family or organizational compound, or even sever estate lots near the top of the mountain.
