A rare opportunity to secure 46 acres of exceptionally private, predominantly forested land in a desirable Springwater location. Set along Old Second Road North and conveniently located near the growing community of Craighurst with easy access to Highway 400, this expansive property offers an increasingly difficult-to-find combination of acreage, natural beauty, privacy and accessibility. Mature woodland blankets much of the property, while picturesque streams and ravine wind through the landscape, creating a peaceful natural setting rich with character. Enjoy hiking, cross-country skiing and ATVing on your own property, and snowmobiling nearby on OFSC trails. An existing 1 1/2-storey residence, together with several outbuildings, offers an opportunity for those with vision to explore renovation, redevelopment or the creation of an entirely new rural retreat, subject to applicable approvals. With generous road frontage, substantial acreage and a location offering convenient access to Barrie, Craighurst and the Highway 400 corridor, the possibilities here are compelling. Whether envisioned as a private country estate, recreational retreat, woodland sanctuary or long-term landholding, this is an opportunity to reimagine an extraordinary piece of rural Springwater. Property and existing structures are being offered in "as is, where is" condition. Buyers to conduct their own due diligence regarding intended use, development potential, zoning, conservation authority requirements and existing services.
