This is a rare opportunity to own one of very few original cottages circa 1910 that has been transformed into a comfortable and modern living space. This character filled home offers the perfect place to rest and relax from the busyness of a hectic life and is ideally located less than an hour from Toronto. Whether you're a retired couple looking for a quiet spot or a young family looking for an alternate lifestyle this home could be the one! The home offers generous living spaces and includes a granite stone fireplace with gas insert and wood paneled walls with beamed ceilings in the living room and formal dining room, and an enclosed sunroom both with walkouts to a covered porch overlooking beautiful lake Simcoe and year round sunsets. There are 2 main level bedrooms with a 3 pc bath and a laundry area tucked away in the mudroom entry. The large renovated family kitchen with slate floors, granite counter tops and plenty of cupboard space overlooks a spacious breakfast room with a custom built-in wall to wall pantry, a picture window with a sunny south exposure and water view. The second level is home to the spacious primary suite offering original pine floors, vaulted ceilings, a 5pc ensuite with separate shower, whirlpool tub, and a sitting area with a lake view. The exterior of the home features beautiful rooflines with a traditional stucco, stone and vinyl exterior, perennial gardens, a lovely private backyard setting with a cozy private deck and a one and a half car detached shop size garage. The private lakeside features hydro at the shoreline, a year round permanent dock along with an additional seasonal dock extension adding extra space for entertaining family and friends on beautiful summer days at the lake. Excellent boating, fishing, year round recreation and panoramic year round sunsets are right at your doorstep. (id:15069)
