If you've ever fantasized about escaping Toronto for a sprawling countryside estate where the only neighbours are deer, birds, and maybe a very chill fox, 5241 Tenth Line in Erin, Ont. might be the pastoral fairy tale you've been waiting for.
Sitting on over 90 acres of rolling hills, private ponds, and actual fieldstone walls, the estate known as Badger Hall feels more "BBC period drama" than "GTA commute."
Realtor Carolyn Scime even calls the grounds "very English country" and honestly, she's not exaggerating.
The field stone walls.
There are stone walls built from granite pulled directly from the property, long winding trails, and enough room to pretend you're the lord or lady of your own private realm.

An aerial view of the driveway.
The gated entrance leads to a long, tree-lined drive that feels like it goes on forever, in a good way.

The front entrance.
As Scime told blogTO, "It is truly a special property. It is extremely private." And she's right: this place is so tucked away you could host an entire Downton Abbey reboot and no one in Toronto would ever know.

The Great Room.
Designed by architect Stephan McCasey, the house is a cedar-shake masterpiece with light pouring through every window.

Views from the Great Room.
Scime notes that the home "has amazing views from every window," and from the looks of it, she's underselling it.

The limestone fireplace.
The great room is anchored by a limestone wood-burning fireplace and flows into a dining room with multiple walkouts to patios.

The kitchen.
The kitchen is the kind of place that makes you want to pretend you're on The Great British Bake Off. There's a massive centre island, tons of storage, smart layout, and a cozy den beside it for post-cooking recovery.

The fireplace and built-in bookcases in the office.
Also on the main floor is an office with another wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins.

The primary bedroom.
The main-floor primary bedroom is flooded with natural light and looks out over the hills.

The primary ensuite.
The ensuite comes with a soaker tub, walk-in shower, double vanity, and a big walk-in closet.

One of the upstairs bedrooms.
Three more bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs handle the family-and-guests situation.

The hot yoga studio.
The finished lower level comes with a hot yoga studio and flex space that can be a gym or media room, depending on your vibe.

The den off the kitchen.
But let's be honest — the house is stunning, but the grounds are the main event.

The trails.
Scime says one of the standout features is the network of magical, 5-kilometre-plus trails the current owners created. They're wide enough for a utility vehicle and perfect for hiking, riding, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, biking — basically any activity that requires fresh air and zero traffic noise.

The pool.
And then there's the 45-foot gunite pool, recently added and set right into the natural landscape. With sweeping western views, sunsets here probably look like they were photoshopped.

The ponds.
Add in the ponds for summer fishing or winter skating, the stone seating areas tucked around the property, the three-car garage, and the detached workshop, and you’ve basically got the full luxury cottage resort experience.

The dining area.
Location-wise, you're minutes from Belfountain, the Caledon Ski Club, The Pulpit, and TPC Osprey Valley, while still being less than an hour from Toronto (traffic dependent).

The main hall.
Badger Hall isn't just a house — it's an entire lifestyle. One that includes forests, sunsets, ponds, fireplaces, trails, and enough peace and quiet to make you forget the Gardiner exists.

The front of the house.
5241 Tenth Line is listed for $7,495,000.
