Seeking that one of the kind, secluded paradise, just close enough to the city, offering plenty to do in both Summer time and Winter?
The quiet village of Moonstone, located just next to the Majestic St. Louis Moonstone ski resort, offers just that.
About 5 years ago, my family was becoming antsy, they wanted to get out of the city and venture out to the country. The list of "wants" was long, so we started looking for the property that would suit all our needs...
After driving around, studying the locations of local attractions, services like hospitals and schools, we came across the property nestled in the quiet subdivision just minutes from the ski slopes. 5 minutes to be exact...
After stepping out of the car, I fell in love with this one acre piece of land enclosed by beautiful, mature Spruce trees. I envisioned my laundry drying in the sun at the back...
And now, here we are settled in, way past the stressful stages of applying for the building permits, coordinating the building schedule from excavations to the final lot grading.
15 minute drive to Barrie allows me to charge for work each day, coming back home, lets me relax and take in the ever-changing scenery. We love the fresh air, friendly neighbors, open spaces and watching falling stars in the back yard. Friends come here from busy cities, gather around the bonfire, relax on the spacious back deck with kids "going camping" and setting up tents on the spacious lot.
Winter time we host the Ski weekends, with ski slopes steps away, where everyone gathers in the morning for the day filled with snow carving and hot chocolate at the lodge. Then we go back home for a hearty meal and the evening filled with stories of days gone by...
If this is the life you seek, consider Moonstone. Spread out along the Moonstone Rd. and down by the 7th Line of Oro Medonte, this community offers smaller ski chalets, large family homes and newer custom build stately residences.
Ski chalets are surrounded by majestic pines and mixed bush, with properties accessible year round by Municipally-maintained roads.
Moonstone residents enjoy the proximity to three larger cities. Orillia is just 10 minutes away, Midland is 15 minutes and you can get to Barrie in 20 minutes.
School children attend Moonstone School, up to grade 6, with older kids traveling by school bus to little town of Coldwater, to charming country school with wonderful teachers and friendly staff. My younger son will attend his graduation ceremony here, next week...
In Coldwater you will also find IGA grocery store, banks, hardware stores, restaurants and everything else you may need.
So if you love skiing and want to stay close to the city, but prefer the slower pace of the country living... Moonstone should be on your list!
