Take Me Home.. Country Roads.. to the place, I belong. This beautiful, comfy, year-round home or cottage, across the road from Lake Vernon, is the private, Muskoka retreat you've been watching n waiting for! The only neighbours you'll see here, are the friendly - some may say nosey - deer, chipmunks and turkeys gracing the lovely 2+ acre wooded property. ..unless you pop down to the public dock just 400 metres away. Even then, it's a bit of a secret, so you can still swim or paddle with the ducks and loons in tranquility. Drive 1 min to rent a private boat slip on this popular 4-lake chain. Vernon has float plane parking too! Off-water taxes with all the benefits of the lake! If a cottage retreat is what you're after, this one's a fantastic option with great short-term, all-year rental potential. You'll love the open concept, bright n cozy space for life and entertainment. 3 beds, 2 baths (incl. ensuite), laundry, awesome walk-out decks, all on one, well-insulated level! Plus a cool, spacious Bunkie w living room, electric FP, king bed with forest view + cozy screened in porch. That's where you'll be hanging - planning the next golf, fishing or sledding expedition with the boys. Just turn the ball game down a bit, so you can yell over from that comfy Bunkie chaise.. "Hey honey, what time's dinner? Umm.. I mean, Hey honey - need me to start the BBQ?" Wait till you see the fab 3+ garage-workshop. With all the pricey, hard stuff done, it's ready for you to finish to its ultimate potential: your dream space. Oh, there's a fire-pit grill and forest zip-line too! Boys and their toys.. Almost heaven.. what's left to do to make it the easy-living, low-maintenance forever abode of your dreams? Add a cozy wood stove perhaps? Maybe get some hens and a greenhouse? Just 15 mins to Huntsville for everything you need to live life as it is best lived: privately, in your peacefully perfect country home - the place, you belong. Hit those colourful country roads and come n get it! (id:45839)
