What You're Looking At

Bella Vista isn't a home with a view. It's a fully realised private estate — multiple buildings, professional resort infrastructure, and 5.5 acres on one of Ontario's most celebrated lakes. Three of the four guest structures are fully equipped year-round. Nothing here is planned. Nothing requires your time or your renovation budget.

This Isn't a Project.
It's Already Done.

Most properties described as "luxury waterfront estates" are a beautiful home on a beautiful piece of water. Bella Vista is in a different category entirely.

Named by the owners after the Spanish phrase for "beautiful view," it was built layer by layer — drawing inspiration from South American design — a principal home, a two-storey boathouse with guest accommodations, four independent guest structures — three fully equipped year-round, one a warm-season retreat — a triple garage with full bar and entertainment space for up to 40, a secondary garage housing a gym and games lounge, two bunkies, a heated inground pool, twin outdoor hot tubs with cascading water features between them, an outdoor chef's kitchen, a covered party pavilion for up to 60, and a heated interlocking drive that descends directly to the water.

You arrive — and it's already everything.
