The brief
About 81 Butlers Dr
81 Butlers Dr is a 2+1-bedroom, 3-bathroom detached house in Ridgeway, Fort Erie, listed for sale at an asking price of $1,050,000 (MLS® X13220580).
Bigger than it looks! This is the kind of move people make when they're done with "someday" & ready to enjoy life now. Built in 2019 on a premium cul de sac lot, by the award winning luxury home builders, Blythwood Homes, & tucked into the highly regarded community "The Oaks at Six Mile Creek", this beautifully designed bungalow offers the kind of easy, comfortable living retirees dream about. Low maintenance living surrounded by nature. The spacious primary bedroom retreat comes complete with a 5-piece ensuite & an oversized walk-in closet that actually lives up to the name. The layout feels effortless. Thoughtfully designed for everyday living without wasted space or unnecessary upkeep & roughly $100k in upgrades when it was built. Whether you're hosting family for the holidays or enjoying a quiet evening at home, this property strikes that rare balance between cozy & spacious with no rear neighbours. The basement gives you flexibility without compromise. There's a large additional bedroom with enough room for a king-size bed, another walk-in closet, a bathroom, office space for hobbies or working from home, plus a huge unfinished storage area for all the things you still want nearby but not underfoot. Ridgeway itself is one of Niagara's best kept secrets. Known for its small-town charm, walkable downtown, local shops, cafes, beaches, and relaxed pace of life, it's the kind of place where people wave to each other and actually mean it. Enjoy nearby access to the Friendship Trail, Crystal Beach, farmers' markets, restaurants, and boutique shopping, weekend brunch spots, bakeries & cafes, all while being just a short drive to the QEW and the rest of Niagara. The community feels more like a lifestyle than just a location. If you've been waiting for a sign to simplify your life without giving up comfort, storage, or style this just might be it.
