MORE LAND, MORE FREEDOM & MORE WAYS TO MAKE IT YOURS! 83.47 acres less than five minutes from Barrie is an opportunity that does not come along often, with approximately 35 workable acres, open fields, mature forest and private trails giving you room to farm, explore, keep equipment, enjoy recreational toys or simply live with far fewer limits around you. The workable acreage is currently used as hay fields by a local farmer, while trails wind through the wooded sections where wildlife is a regular part of the scenery. At the centre of it all sits a bungalow with more than 3,000 sq. ft. of finished living space, including a large eat-in kitchen with extensive cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a mosaic backsplash, plus a separate dining room and spacious living room with double garden doors opening to the covered back deck. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet with an integrated 2-piece ensuite, while a second large bedroom sits on the opposite side of the main floor near a 4-piece bath with a deep soaker tub and separate shower. The finished basement adds another full level of living with a large rec room, two additional bedrooms, a bathroom rough-in and its own separate entrance, creating excellent in-law potential for extended family or longer-term guests. The covered back deck overlooks the expansive lawn, with a patio, firepit and 8 x 10 shed set beyond. Improvements include replaced windows and shingles, added R20 attic insulation and a replaced sump pump. Tangle Creek, Ardagh Bluffs, Highway 400, Allandale Waterfront GO and Snow Valley Ski Resort are all within easy reach, then you come home to hay fields, forest trails and more land than most people ever get to call their own.
