Tucked on a quiet road halfway between Bracebridge and Huntsville, this charming and cozy home offers a unique blend of comfort, creativity, and functionality. With its chalet-inspired design, warm wood heat, and airy sleeping lofts, it has a vibe all its own: welcoming, relaxed, and full of character. The bright interior features large windows that invite in natural light, a sunroom off the kitchen for morning coffee or plants, and a Juliette balcony off the primary loft, the perfect perch to enjoy the surrounding nature. A convenient covered mudroom entry keeps things practical year-round. Outside, the level, sun-filled lot offers endless potential for micro-homesteading with space for gardens, a chicken coop, and room to roam. The property includes handy outbuildings, carports, a drilled well, propane furnace, and a Generac generator for peace of mind. With nearby access to the Muskoka River, this property combines innovative style with everyday convenience, creating a cozy country retreat with just the right amount of edge.
