SUN-FILLED BUNGALOW ON A PRIVATE RAVINE LOT WITH FOREST VIEWS, A WALKOUT BASEMENT, & A YARD MADE FOR RELAXING! Welcome to a private retreat in the heart of West Barrie, set on a premium lot backing onto protected EP land and the tranquil Sandy Hollow Ravine. This charming all-brick Morra Homes-built bungalow offers a rare sense of seclusion while still being steps from parks, schools, and public transit. Step onto the back deck and you're greeted by the sights and sounds of the forest, with a fully fenced yard, lush lawn, colourful garden beds, and space to relax, play, or entertain under the trees. A charming enclosed front porch welcomes you inside, where the sun-filled living space unfolds with a bright, open layout designed for both comfort and connection. The family-sized eat-in kitchen features ample storage, pantry space, and a sliding glass walkout to the deck, all flowing naturally into a cozy family room with a warm natural gas fireplace and an adjoining living and dining area ready for gatherings. The generous primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a spa-like 4-piece ensuite with a deep soaker tub, while a second bedroom and full bath provide room for guests or family. Main-floor laundry with garage access adds thoughtful convenience to daily life. Downstairs, a finished lower level offers space to stretch out with a large rec room, an additional bedroom, a den, a spacious workshop, a bathroom rough-in, and plenty of storage - plus a separate walk-up entrance for in-law potential or extended family. With the Nine Mile Portage Heritage Trail nearby for weekend adventures and quick access to Highway 400, downtown Barrie, Kempenfelt Bay, and Centennial Beach, this is where nature, comfort, and convenience come together. Don't miss this exceptional #HomeToStay, offering a lifestyle that feels grounded and effortlessly connected to everything you need.
