Inside the home
The backyard is the real story here. An inground pool, hot tub on a raised pergola deck, interlocking brick patio, and no rear neighbours — just open farmland behind the fence. That combination on a mature north-end street is genuinely uncommon. Inside, the main level is solid: rich hardwood floors, California shutters, an updated white kitchen with stainless appliances, and two bedrooms with crown moulding. The finished basement adds meaningful space — a large rec room with gas fireplace, a bedroom, a second bathroom, and a home office — though the laundry room is unfinished and the basement bath is dated. Buyers should note the MLS lists two bedrooms; the basement room used as a third should be verified for legal egress. Pool and deck age warrants a closer look at condition during inspection.

Welcome to 68 Allensgate Drive — a solid-brick bungalow tucked into one of Brantford's most established north-end streets, in the heart of the Myrtleville neighbourhood. What sets this home apart is the backyard: a fully fenced retreat with an inground pool and hot tub, backing directly onto parkland with no rear neighbours. That combination is genuinely hard to find in this pocket, and it's the first thing you'll notice. Inside, the main level offers easy single-floor living with two generous bedrooms, a full bath, and bright principal rooms framed by California shutters and updated windows (2020). Hardwood and ceramic flooring run throughout. The fully finished lower level adds a third bedroom, a second full bath, and a spacious family room anchored by a gas fireplace — perfect for a games room, movie nights, or extended family. All in, you're looking at over 2,400 square feet of finished living space. Beyond the pool, the location does the rest of the work. You're steps from Walter Gretzky Municipal Golf Course and the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre, close to top-rated schools and playgrounds, and just minutes from Highway 403, Highway 24, and King George Road — ideal for commuters without sacrificing the quiet. A double-wide driveway and attached two-car garage round out the package. Move-in ready, single-floor living, a turn-key pool, and green space at the back fence. Book your private showing and see why this combination is so hard to replicate in Myrtleville.
