Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after Riverview Estates subdivision, this beautifully crafted log home by True North Log Homes offers nearly 200 ft of frontage on the Muskoka River with direct access to Huntsville's 4-lake chain & over 40 miles of boating. A full length covered porch welcomes you on the road side, while inside the main floor features an open-concept living, dining & kitchen area centred around a stunning stone natural gas fireplace. The kitchen is complimented by a large pantry for everyday ease. From the kitchen, step out to the riverside deck with a convenient natural gas BBQ hookup, perfect for easy summer evenings by the water. A 2-pc powder room is conveniently located on the main floor, and a separate hall closet houses the stackable laundry & laundry sink. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers soaring cathedral ceilings, double closets, a cozy natural gas fireplace, a 6-pc ensuite & serene views of the surrounding trees. A guest bedroom & 4-pc bath complete the second floor. The fully finished walkout basement adds a large rec room, third bedroom & another 4-pc bath, ideal for family or visitors. A double car detached garage provides ample parking and storage. Outside, enjoy fabulous water views from your private dock, with a shallow area for kids to play & deeper water at the end for swimming. The oversized dock of over 30ft in length means there is plenty of room to dock your boat. Serviced by a drilled well, septic, municipal natural gas & curbside sanitary collection, and located close to Riverside Public School & Huntsville High School, this property blends the warmth & character of log home living with the convenience of being just minutes to town, an exceptional home or cottage opportunity.
