A rare opportunity to own a 45.35-acre farm in the heart of Niagara's agricultural region. The farm has been family-owned and operated since 1952 and features a thriving pick-your-own fruit farm, cash crops, two homes, two barns, a fruit stand, a 100' deep spring well and a scenic pond. The 9-acre orchard produces sweet and sour cherries, apples, pears, mulberries, pawpaws, and raspberries, including a small patch of specialty raspberries imported from Italy and England. Pawpaws, a rare delicacy in the region, add uniqueness, while mulberries represent a growing market. Over 35 acres are planted with soybeans, providing additional income.

The main home is a 1562 sqft 1.5-storey farmhouse with five bedrooms and two bathrooms. A farm helper house features two self-contained units consisting of a one-bedroom unit and a three-bedroom unit, ideal for farm staff or multi-generational living. Outbuildings include a newly constructed 4,500-square-foot barn (2019) equipped with electricity and a heated workshop, as well as a historic barn that offers character and versatility. Additional structures include a fully operational fruit stand with a cooler, a pump house with an attached carport, and a scenic 0.25-acre pond, enhancing both irrigation and the farms natural beauty. Located just five minutes from Fonthill, this property provides easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, shopping, recreational facilities, golf courses, and excellent schools. Major highways are also nearby, offering the perfect balance of rural tranquility and modern convenience. This is a rare opportunity to own a historic, income-producing farm in one of Ontario's most desirable agricultural regions.
