LUXURIOUS LAKEFRONT RETREAT WITH 200 FT OF SHORELINE, PRIME SW EXPOSURE, BUNKIE & HEATED/INSULATED GUEST COTTAGE! Set along the shores of Lake of Bays, where water levels are thoughtfully managed by the township to help preserve shoreline integrity and enjoyment, this luxurious waterfront retreat offers 200 ft of crystal-clear shoreline, prime SW exposure, a bunkie and a heated/insulated guest cottage. Set on 0.86 acres, this property offers a flat lot, hard-packed sandy waterfront, no stairs to the shoreline, and the advantage of both walk-in entry and deeper water off the dock. Set on a year-round municipal road near Dorset, Huntsville, Gravenhurst, Bracebridge, and Baysville, enjoy miles of boating with access to restaurants, grocery stores, the LCBO, Robinson's Hardware, ice cream, Lake of Bays Brewery, and Bigwin Island. Substantially rebuilt in 2007, the main residence features cathedral ceilings, oak hardwood floors, large windows, and a kitchen showcasing wood cabinetry, granite counters, and a large island with seating. The primary bedroom offers separate deck access and a full wall of windows overlooking the water. Landscaped grounds present perennial gardens, granite stone steps, a crushed granite driveway with ample parking, and a cleared area for games or future landscaping. Outdoor living continues with updated two-tier decks and an oversized 500 sq ft L-shaped floating dock. The heated/insulated guest cottage has a living room, 2 bedrooms, and a bathroom, plus a bunkie. Modern systems include a propane high-efficiency furnace, on-demand hot water systems, a UV & filtered lake water system, heated water lines, an over-capacity septic system, foamed-in-place insulation, a BBQ gas hookup, and updated drainage. An additional cleared lot across the road offers potential for a garage, future outbuilding, or extra parking. A distinctive Lake of Bays offering where exceptional shoreline, thoughtful design, and guest space come together in all the right ways!
