Farm & Rural Properties in Ontario
Farms, hobby farms and rural properties
Country property is a different kind of buy — and the right one depends on what you want to do with it. A few chickens and a garden, or horses and a barn? What matters most usually isn't in the listing. Christine grew up on a farm and knows what to look for and what to watch out for, so you go in with your eyes open.
What's the difference between a hobby farm and a working farm?
A hobby farm is usually smaller acreage with smaller outbuildings — a place to raise a few chickens or goats, or grow a big vegetable garden — and the owners wouldn't call themselves farmers. A working farm is an active operation, often with heavy equipment and registered as a commercial farm, which can attract HST when it sells. This list has both.
What should I check before buying?
It comes down to your plans. Want horses or livestock, or to build a barn? Check with the township first — what's allowed, and how many animals. Then the practical side: water supply for animals, grazing pasture, fencing, the age of the barn, and what it'll cost to set the place up for what you have in mind.
Where do you cover, and how do I keep up?
Peterborough County, Northumberland, Kawartha Lakes and Durham. The farm and rural listings below are public and kept current, so you can watch them here anytime — or ask us to keep you posted.
