Clarington Jackpot

This is the place I mentioned in the forum. We found it while driving around Clarington looking for the farm used in the old horror film "Deranged" from 1975. The area matches closely, but alas it wasn't the find I was looking for; instead, we found a pioneer farmhouse gem behind the trees. This has no signs so it should be safe to enter. Just park at the gate and walk in. I am sharing one photo, and will expect others to get in there too before it's too late. I sense this will be demolished in the next while. I didn't go further due to it being late and the mosquitoes were coming out to feast..

I did some research and this was the James Bradley farm. His family also owned the farm to the immediate west. The Cowan farm to the immediate east still stands proud with the ridges directly behind them.

It's a beautiful drive up in this dirt road area, and the views are astounding up here.

• Active construction to the left of driveway. Suggest parking not in front of the gate but at the end of the road in the cul-de-sac which is in front of another gate.
• Watch for bees. Possible activity in the flowers on the table, as we found out.
• Floors are getting weak.

This property appears to be owned by a Dr. David Engel

UPDATE OCT.1/17

The floors in this house are very soft and unsafe.. if you plan on going here please be very careful and watch every step you take. I didn't even go into some rooms as I was worried about falling through the floors. -kaitrinsullivan

“Big PRIVATE PROPERTY SIGN. Workers were doing work on property when I was there. I would not recommend going back. The house is being renovated and the property maintained. They had word with me.”
