Tay Valley, ON
Vacant Land • 134 days on market
Some properties sell a lifestyle. This one sells a feeling. Standing on 16 acres along the Tay River with more than 430 feet of shoreline, you notice the calm first. The water is clear and unhurried, moving past a landscape of mature trees and open spaces that feels both sheltered and expansive at the same time. Paddle out from your own shore and you are connected to Perth and the broader Rideau waterway, one of Ontario's most storied canal systems. On land, the property gives you options that most waterfront lots simply cannot. Over 1,500 feet of road frontage means access is never a concern, and with hydro already at the road and a permitted entrance in place, you are not starting from scratch. Whether you envision a single home tucked among the trees or a a family estate with a workshop, guest house, and room for family to spread out, the acreage supports it. Lots like this, with real waterfront footage, proper infrastructure, and this much usable land, are a rare find in any market. Perth is minutes away. The river is right here. The only thing missing is your plans.
