Private 9.36-acre retreat with trails, vaulted living, loft, and total privacy, minutes to Brighton & Hwy 401. Imagine starting your day with expansive views over the rolling Northumberland hills, then stepping outside to explore your own network of private forest trails with family and pets-this property is designed for lifestyle as much as living. Set among mature trees with gently rolling terrain, it offers exceptional privacy and a true escape. The custom-built 1.5-storey home features a dramatic sun-filled living room with soaring vaulted ceilings and a loft overlooking the main living space. A beautifully updated solid-wood kitchen and large windows throughout showcase the surrounding landscape. The second level is dedicated to a private primary retreat with double-door entry, walk-through his-and-hers closet, and full 4-piece ensuite with soaker tub. The main floor offers laundry and a 2-piece bath. The walkout lower level includes two bedrooms and a full 4-piece bath, ideal for family or guests. Outdoors, enjoy the expansive rear deck and patio for entertaining, the large hot tub, and the fenced yard ready for a future pool, with pre-run gas and electrical for pool hookup and a gas line for BBQ. The large forested property has an extensive, well-developed trail system throughout for your enjoyment. A large custom shed adds excellent storage or workshop potential. Thoughtfully equipped with 200-amp service, whole-home 16kW Generac generator, and a new water treatment system (2026). Roof updated in 2018 with architectural shingles. Carefully maintained by the current owners, the property reflects a high level of ongoing stewardship and attention to detail. For added buyer confidence, a recent full home inspection and comprehensive water analysis are available for review. Ideally located minutes to Hwy 401, within commuting distance to Durham Region and Trenton/Belleville, and close to Presqu'ile Provincial Park, golf, and all Brighton amenities.
