There's something special about the house on the hill. Perched atop a spacious, elevated lot overlooking the village of Burk's Falls, this lovingly maintained bungalow offers a wonderful sense of space and setting, along with the ease of in-town living. With lovely views and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors, it feels pleasantly private while remaining close to the amenities of town. The 1,473 sq. ft. main level is warm, bright and welcoming, with beautiful hardwood flooring throughout the principal living spaces and heated tile floors in the foyer, kitchen and bathroom. A bright and cheery kitchen sits at the heart of the home; a tranquil retreat for your morning coffee, holiday meals and quality family time. Three bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom complete the main level, along with the convenience of an attached 18' x 17' garage. The fully finished lower level adds an impressive 1,442 sq. ft. of additional living space, complete with a second 4-piece bathroom and plenty of flexibility for guest accommodations, a home office, gym, recreation room or dedicated hobby space. Municipal services add the convenience of town living, while a backup generator provides added peace of mind. Thoughtfully cared for, remarkably spacious and set high above the village, this home offers the best of both worlds: connected to the community with a setting that feels distinctly its own. The house on the hill - ready to welcome its next chapter.

Where this property is
Where this address sits, matched against open government data.
Estimated from the house-number range along this road: the right block of the right street, not the exact building. No address file publishes this house.
Schools
The school boundaries this address is inside, and the schools nearest it. Boards redraw boundaries and cap programs — confirm with the board before this affects a decision.
Other schools nearby
By distance from this address, not school boundary — a school 400 m away can be in another school’s attendance area.
| School | Level | Distance | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| Land of Lakes Elementary School Near North DSB | Elementary | 780 m | / 10 60% met the standard |
How the rating is calculated
EQAO — Ontario’s testing agency — publishes, for each school, the percentage of students meeting the provincial standard in Grade 3 and Grade 6 reading, writing and mathematics. The rating is the average of those percentages divided by ten. A school where 72% of students met the standard rates 7.2 out of 10.
Nothing is weighted or adjusted, and schools are not ranked against each other. Where EQAO withholds a result to protect the privacy of a small group of students, that measure is left out rather than counted as zero — so a rating built on fewer than six measures says so.
What it does not measure. It is one year of standardised testing in three subjects. It says nothing about teaching, programs, or whether a school suits a particular child, and it tracks neighbourhood household income closely enough that it partly measures the neighbourhood rather than the school. Treat it as one figure among many.

Percentages are of the 255 responses in this category. Statistics Canada rounds counts and withholds small ones to keep individuals unidentifiable, so categories with too few people to publish are absent rather than shown as zero.

If you rented it out
How this is calculated, and what it leaves out
Canadian fixed-rate mortgages compound semi-annually, not monthly, so the monthly rate here is (1 + rate/2)1/6 − 1. Most calculators use rate ÷ 12, which is the American convention and overstates the payment by tens of dollars a month.
Below 20% down, default insurance is mandatory and is added to the loan rather than paid at closing: 2.80% at 85% loan-to-value, 3.10% at 90%, 4.00% at 95%. It is unavailable at or above $1.5M, which is why 20% is a hard floor there.
Not included: vacancy, property management, capital repairs, income tax, and the fact that a lender qualifies you at a stress-test rate rather than the one you are quoted. This is arithmetic on the numbers above, not a mortgage approval or an opinion of what you can afford.
