R of Yonge & Escott Twp

Nestled in the heart of Leeds and Grenville County, the Township of Yonge and Escott—often referred to simply as Yonge & Escott—offers the quintessential rural Ontario lifestyle just minutes from the charming village of Athens. This picturesque area is defined by rolling farmland, tranquil woodlots, and the gentle flow of the Gananoque River, making it a haven for those seeking peace, privacy, and a slower pace of life. The community is tight-knit, with a strong agricultural heritage that still thrives today, while residents enjoy easy access to modern amenities in nearby towns like Brockville, Gananoque, and even Kingston for more extensive services. For commuters, Highway 401 runs just south of the township, providing efficient routes to larger urban centres, while local roads offer scenic drives through the countryside. Housing options here are diverse and appealing, from sprawling century farms and renovated country homes to modern bungalows on generous acreages and vacant land for custom builds. Whether you're looking for a hobby farm, a recreational retreat, or a forever home surrounded by nature, Yonge & Escott's real estate market offers exceptional value and room to breathe. With its blend of rural charm, convenient location, and welcoming community, it's no wonder that more families and retirees are discovering this hidden gem in Eastern Ontario.
