188 Cottage RD

Perched atop a dramatic 60-foot granite cliff overlooking McCarrel Lake, this extraordinary fully off-grid luxury property offers one of the most breathtaking settings in Algoma. Completely rebuilt and renovated to an exceptional standard in 2021 by Timmerman Scott Builders, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind year-round liveable waterfront escape. Set on approximately 3 private acres with 285 feet of pristine shoreline, the custom-designed residence blends refined modern finishes with warm cottage character. Expansive glass captures panoramic lake views and unforgettable sunsets year-round, while soaring ceilings, rich wood interiors, designer finishes, and curated details create an atmosphere that feels more boutique getaway than traditional cottage. The state-of-the-art solar system offers seamless off-grid living with fully remote-accessible management, Starlink internet, year-round road access, propane radiant heating, and all the comforts of modern luxury, making this an exceptional four-season getaway. The open-concept interior features a stunning kitchen, cozy wood stove living area, loft-style bedroom overlooking the lake, and beautifully finished bath with farm house-style shower and tub. The property also includes a separate sleeping bunkie with an ensuite and wood stove, a waterside boathouse, excellent swimming, and multiple outdoor spaces designed to fully embrace the setting. Located just 30 minutes from Sault Ste. Marie, this is the crown jewel of McCarrel Lake — an unforgettable waterfront property that simply could not be recreated today
