5 Ontario Homes and Lots from Riverfront to Estate Living

By Awais Manzoor

1 min read

Across Ontario, this quintet of properties frames home as a way of living—shaped by water, trails, and protected greenspace as much as by square footage. Along the Saugeen River in Southampton, townhomes place daily life within walking distance of downtown and the beach, while a Norfolk County offering highlights flexible lot options for builders or investors. From a gated, chateau-inspired estate atop the Niagara Escarpment to a carefully upgraded Barrie townhouse and a canopy-covered Caledon East acreage, privacy and convenience stay in careful balance.

An expansive unfinished basement with high ceilings offers added flexibility, and the roof was redone in 2018.
