1145 Cliffdene Road, Lake of Bays, ON, P0A 1E0, Canada

Description

Nestled above 205 feet of Lake of Bays shoreline, this three-bedroom (plus insulated Bunkie) charmer boasts spectacular west-facing views of Reuben Island and The Narrows beyond. A four-minute drive to Dorset with excellent cell and internet reception, this 3-season cottage offers superb privacy while providing accessibility to all amenities. The principal bedroom has ensuite privileges as well as a ‘workspace with a view’. The dining room, with 3-sided floor-to-ceiling views of the water, is a perfect space for a family to gather for meals or games while the sun sets. Four viewing decks, including a screened-in games room and separate workshop, line the descent to the water. The upper-level deck off the dining room provides a cool breeze and almost no bugs. There are good stairs to the waterfront (about 70) from the cottage. Once at the shore, the L-shaped dock leads out to a 12-foot depth of clear Lake of Bays water, while a sandy shoreline to the north allows for easy lake-entry for children. The laneway to the property is narrow with one short steep hill just before the cottage. Sellers say it has been kept open in winter but not recently.

Cottage is less than 300 metres to the year-round municipally-maintained road. Surrounded by a granite cliff to the north and east, privacy fencing, and a bunkie to the south, and with only one quiet neighbour, this property offers exceptional privacy in a highly sought-after location.

The property is secluded with very few lights or sounds from nearby cottages, only faint twinkling lights at night and the sound of the loons from across the lake. The roof shingles were replaced in 2019 and the water heater was replaced in 2020.

Offers to be presented at 2 p.m. on August 4/2021. Pre-emptive offers will be reviewed.
