About this property

The Robert Orr Farmhouse is a timeless landmark, reimagined into a private resort where you can swim until Hallowe'en! Experience the perfect blend of old world character and modern luxury in this fully restored 1881 farmhouse, set on a private 2/3-acre lot in Kitcheners desirable Rosenberg subdivision. Surrounded by scenic trails and a community tribute to its historical roots, this iconic residence combines original features, such as its curved staircase, stained-glass accents, and oversized baseboards, with thoughtful high-end updates throughout. At the heart of the home is a beautifully renovated, chef-inspired kitchen with quartz countertops, premium appliances, a built-in coffee bar, and a generous walk-in pantry/mudroom. A bright and spacious 3 1/2-season sunroom offers the ideal space for year-round entertaining or quiet relaxation. Upstairs, a spa-like bathroom boasts custom tilework and a quartz vanity, while a convenient second-floor laundry room adds everyday ease. Major infrastructure upgrades, like 200-amp electrical service, new HVAC, plumbing, roof, eaves, and repointed masonry, combine to deliver worry-free living. An exceptional bonus is the fully detached, self-contained coach house, featuring its own HVAC, 100-amp service, full bath, bedroom, living area, and a main-floor space ready for a kitchen. Plus, there's a finished basement ideal for a gym, studio, or creative space. Perfect for multigenerational living, a home-based business, or potential rental income (pending city approval). The resort-style backyard is an entertainers dream, with a 15' x 32' smart-controlled pool by Tim Goodwin, professional-grade putting green, gas firepit, RV parking, invisible pet fencing, and a new irrigation system, all framed by mature maple trees. Located steps from RBJ Schlegel Park with its sports fields, playgrounds, and planned rec centre, this home offers a rare blend of legacy, lifestyle, and location. A truly unique opportunity in Waterloo Region!
