** MUST SEE PROPERTY FEATURE IN 2025 HIDEAWAYS MAGAZINE ** Step into a piece of Muskoka history with this enchanting early 1900s lakefront cottage, blending timeless charm with incredible functionality across a sprawling and private waterfront property. With long lake views, western exposure, and nightly sunsets that never disappoint, this is a true four-season retreat or summer family compound with room for all. The main cottage offers four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a bonus loft that is sure to be a family favourite. This upper level open-concept space includes a bright and airy games area, cozy recreation room with a walk-out to a small balcony overlooking the lake, and a sleeping nook with three twin beds - perfect for kids, guests, or overflow sleeping arrangements. At the waters edge you will find a rare two-slip boathouse with a generous upper deck sitting area for lakeside lounging. Inside, a cleverly designed slip-level bedroom opens directly onto the lower lakeside decking, making it a magical guest space or private hideaway. The boathouse also features a convenient 3-piece bathroom, allowing for comfortable, self-contained living right at the shore. The beautifully landscaped grounds include a charming gazebo set just feet from the water, offering the perfect spot to sip morning coffee or enjoy cocktail hour at sunset. Behind the cottage, a spacious workshop presents endless possibilities - whether as a hobbyists dream space or easily converted into a lakeside bunkie. An additional storage shed located near the parking area ensures practical storage for seasonal gear and outdoor essentials. With ample parking for 6-8 vehicles, this property is well-equipped for entertaining friends and hosting extended family. Offering character, space, and a classic Muskoka cottage feel - combined with modern-day conveniences - this rare offering captures the very best of lakefront living.
