Experience the very best of Lake Muskoka from this exceptional waterfront retreat, offering 255 feet of pristine shoreline and breathtaking west-facing sunsets. Ideally located in the heart of Muskoka, this stunning property is perfectly situated between Bala, Gravenhurst, and Port Carling, providing convenient access to the region's finest dining, shopping, and golf. From the moment you arrive, you'll be impressed by the beautifully landscaped grounds, a wrap-around driveway, and an attached double-car garage, all combining to create outstanding curb appeal. Inside, the thoughtfully designed main cottage offers an inviting open-concept layout, where expansive living spaces flow seamlessly into a gourmet kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A private primary bedroom wing provides a peaceful sanctuary, while the fully finished walkout lower level offers generous additional living space for family and guests. The crown jewel of the property is the extraordinary two-storey, three-slip boathouse with living accommodations above-a rare and highly sought-after feature on Lake Muskoka. Whether hosting guests, enjoying waterfront living, or simply taking in the panoramic lake views, this remarkable space is truly unforgettable. Spend your days boating, swimming, and relaxing on one of Canada's most prestigious lakes, then end each evening watching spectacular sunsets from your own shoreline.
