Unique Hill-top, Executive Ranch-style, Fully-Furnished Duplex in Dundas

Description

Welcome to our hilltop duplex, where nature is right outside your door. If you enjoy wide-open spaces, local wildlife, and the peacefulness of the outdoors, you'll feel right at home here. We are a 5-minute drive from McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences. Although we are technically in the town of Dundas, with a ravine in our backyard the wildlife abounds. Over the past year, we have seen deer, foxes, groundhogs, rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, and many types of insects and birds. It is a very unique experience in the middle of town and close to McMaster University, yet surrounded by nature. While we will be living in the smaller side of the duplex for parts of the year, there is an expansive, sunny side that longs to be occupied. With spacious rooms and corresponding large windows, nature is very close. From the windows you can see the Niagara Escarpment, downtown Dundas, Sydenham Creek, as well as forests of trees. We feel that our home would appeal to not only visiting professors and researchers, postgraduates, and healthcare professionals, but to their families as well. We offer a fully-furnished home meant for those who are visiting on a temporary assignment or who are relocating. We are looking for tenants who will treat our home with care while enjoying the space and freedom our space provides. A short walk downhill is downtown Dundas, which is bustling with interesting and unique shops, a grocery store, banks, a library, doctors' offices, and health care clinics, - the Dundas Museum, which holds rotating exhibits and events - the Carnegie Gallery that sponsors Gallery Showings and Events - an indoor swimming pool, skating and hockey arenas - the Community Centre - Dundas Little Theatre, and - neighbourhood churches The neighbourhood schools are within walking distance, and bussing is available for the local high school on the edge of town. Our restaurants bring people from out-of-town. Trip Advisor lists a diverse collection of restaurants in Dundas: "from fine-dining French fare and contemporary bistros to cozy Lebanese spots, upscale pubs, and artisanal coffee shops," We also have specialty food stores. Located at the end of our street is the Dundas Driving Park.
