TeutonicSplendourandWaterPhantasie-Ganaraska -    4597 Ganaraska Road, Clarington (Kendal) - (HWY 35-115/County Road 9) Ontario, Canada  Professor Zacharias, a luminary in the field of Economics, an illustrious author and teacher at the Goettingen University, visits our Ganaraska Forest three to four times a year to pen his books. In 1995, he bought the Estate from a Persian Engineering student who studied in Germany and originally plunked down some $4.2 million to build his Canadian Escape on the sprawling forested 6 acres. In 2000, the Professor seized on the opportunity to acquire an additional abutting 6 acres to ensure a perpetual buffering zone - thus ~ 12 acres in total. For the occasional visiting friends and family, the self contained West Wing Guest Quarter - complete with Kitchen, Washroom and Laundry Facility, offers complete privacy from the main house. All principal rooms overlook the Pond/Lake and lush green forests.

With only 50 minutes highway driving North East of Toronto, the Estate is ideal for the occasional escape or easy commute from Peterborough, Northumberland, and of course, Toronto itself.
