53 acre building lot, 2 minutes from Acton.
A rare opportunity to own acreage in an estate subdivision setting. Other properties are available but they are usually on a remote county road or highway, this property has access from a quiet, prestigious estate subdivision road. The other homes in this subdivision were built in the last 10 years by Legend Homes of Oakville.
Imagine living in a estate subdivision close to town and being able to have horses. Where else can you find land in Halton Region for $22,600 an acre? Compare to other one acre building lots farther from town for $450K and up. An incredible value.
Building permits are available immediately. Hydro and natural gas are available at the lot line. There are three new wells on the property. The property boasts multiple potential building sites. Several of building sites would lend themselves to a basement walkout. Some sites are completely secluded from all roads and neighbors if you value your privacy.
This is an ideal opportunity to build a dream home and land bank for the future. The property is located directly between the town limits and an existing estate subdivision which makes it a prime location to be annexed by the town in the future. This may take many years to happen but when it does the property will likely increase in value by ten fold or more.

Questions:
Can this land be subdivided or severed? There are three frontages that would make it a logical candidate for severance but presently it is our understanding that severances would not be permitted.
Is this property under Niagara Escarpment jurisdiction? No.
Is this property part of the Oak Ridges Moraine? No.
Is this property within a key natural heritage or hydrological feature? No, and before anyone asks, it is not
within a provincially designated “natural heritage system” either.
Is this within the Greenbelt Plan? Yes. It is also situated directly between the town of Acton and a subdivision which would make it a natural candidate to be one day annexed by the town for development.
Is this land under CVC restrictions? Yes, about 20% of the land cannot be built on but it does not have much affect on the use of the land. Maps and more details upon request.
I am the owner. I am not looking for a real estate agent but the property is listed with MLS so agents will be compensated. If you are a buyer please contact me directly, if you are an agent with a buyer I will direct you to the listing agent.
