413 Stoney Point Rd South, Brighton, Ontario

I just finished uploading this Waterfront home for sale, 413 Stoney Point Rd South, Brighton, Ontario

This little piece of paradise on Lake Ontario within 1 1/2 hours of Toronto must be seen to be believed! This is a RARE opportunity for anyone looking for an extremely private family compound or a multitude of business opportunities (or both)! Included in this 20 acre parcel are approximately 7 acres of landscaped perennial gardens surrounding the well maintained 4 bedroom home with pool and deck offering one of the most stunning views of Lake Ontario and Boat Harbour in the County. There are also two 2 bedroom cottages (16 x 37') that share their own pool and deck, and a quonset hut (40 x 60'). A UV water treatment system supports the main house and both cottages. There are gentle rolling grassy hills with a pathway to the dock and water access. There are also areas of significant wetland and forests offering flora and fauna galore! This is a nature lover's paradise! Since this property is just a stone's throw from Presqu’ile Provincial Park (known as the second largest bird sanctuary in North America), numerous species of birds rely on the sanctuary this property has become thanks to the care and attention of its current owners, who are ready to pass the baton to the next steward of this private sanctuary. This property also offers lots of nostalgia and charm. The cottages are actually old army barracks used in WWII (CFB Trenton) that are sturdy galvanized steel, perched on the hill with a stunning view of the water. Both cottages were redesigned on the inside by the previous owners and then redecorated with themes by their current owners. The large, two double door quonset hut is also from CFB Trenton and it was also used during WWII. It is considered an antique due to the structure and "hand-steamed" curved spines that support it. The privacy and charm that this property offers is without comparison, and cannot be described in words which is why it must be seen to be believed!
