About this property
Perched along the edge of the Niagara Escarpment, 'Claremont Manor' occupies one of Hamilton's most remarkable settings. Chosen approximately 140 years ago for its commanding views across the city and Lake Ontario, this landmark limestone estate continues to offer the same sense of privacy, beauty and connection to nature that first made the property so extraordinary. Surrounded by mature trees with no homes directly in front, and with the Bruce Trail, scenic lookouts and countless walking and cycling routes just beyond your doorstep, it offers a peaceful retreat only minutes from the heart of the city. Circa 1880, the residence spans 4,189 sq ft above grade with 5 bdrms & 4 baths, where original craftsmanship has been thoughtfully preserved alongside carefully considered updates. Rich woodwork, intricate hardwood flooring, grand principal rooms, a mahogany-panelled dining room, elegant fireplaces and a light-filled sunroom speak to the home's remarkable heritage, while the updated kitchen blends timeless character with modern convenience. Upstairs, the primary retreat captures breathtaking escarpment, city and lake views, complete with a private sitting room, charming sunroom and spacious ensuite. Outside, beautifully landscaped grounds unfold into a secluded courtyard featuring a custom gunite plunge pool/hot tub, resort-style cabana, pergola, dry sauna and exceptional privacy. Moments from Locke Street, downtown Hamilton, St. Joseph's Healthcare, GO Transit, Hillfield Strathallan College, Highway 403 and the Lincoln Alexander Parkway, Claremont Manor offers a rare opportunity to own one of Hamilton's true landmark residences - where history, nature and everyday living come together in a setting that simply cannot be recreated.
