Located on 7.3 acres in a quiet pocket on the west side of Brighton, 70 Simpson St offers a solid brick bungalow with rare privacy and natural space, presenting a unique opportunity for someone looking for space to breathe while keeping close to town amenities. A gated entrance opens to a large driveway, while mature trees, walking trails, a creek and panoramic views of the surrounding hills and Lake Ontario create an incredibly peaceful setting that has made this place a family sanctuary for decades. Inside, the main floor offers 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, including a primary bedroom with double closets and a private 2-piece ensuite. The kitchen and dining area are open to one another, while downstairs, the partially finished basement adds a large rec and family room, fourth bedroom, wood stove and plenty of storage space. The attached single-car garage provides separate entrances into the main floor and basement, adding convenience and flexibility. Outside, a 2-storey barn and Quonset hut provide options for creative space, additional storage and utility, rounding out a private acreage property. Whether you are looking to enjoy the expansive grounds as they are or bring your own vision to the space, the setting provides a quiet, comfortable retreat with exceptional scenery in every season.
