1489 Old HWY 117, Lake of Bays
Lake of Bays at its best! This traditional but recently updated cottage sits on the coveted south shore, getting some of the most beautiful sunsets you can find! The main cottage welcomes you into a warm Muskoka room with a vaulted wood-paneled ceiling and a large granite fireplace as the focal point. It has three bedrooms and two bathrooms with an upper loft bedroom for additional guests. The master bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom and a private walkout to the expansive deck. The bright and renovated kitchen has a view of the waterfront with lots of cupboard space to keep the cottage well stocked. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the sunroom and dining room fill the cottage with light and provide an epic view over the water toward Bigwin Island. Behind the cottage is a charming three-room bunkie that sleeps 4-5 people, as well as a separate workshop and storage cabin.
The shoreline is a perfect balance of shallow water and hard-packed sand for children to play, while the dock provides access to deep water for diving and making use of the numerous water toys included with the property – including a sailboat, kayak,s and windsurfer. The lot slopes gently to the lake with a nice expansive westerly view, open grassy areas, and lots of privacy from the tall white pines over the property.
Situated halfway between Baysville and Dorset, this property is very close to the Lake of Bays Tennis Club, Sailing Club, and Bigwin Island Golf Club. There is excellent cycling, hiking, and cross-country skiing. This property puts you in a central location to enjoy all that Lake of Bays has to offer while providing privacy, peace, and quiet.
