Cottage #914

Unparalleled balance of luxury, comfort and tranquility awaits you at this magnificent lakefront cottage/home located on the beautiful shores of Lake Simcoe! This gorgeous 4-season, 3,500 sq. ft., 3 level, 4 bedroom cottage sits on over a half acre of land with sweeping views out to the lake.

The sprawling open concept kitchen/dining/living room, with its soaring cathedral ceilings and breathtaking views of the lake from the floor to ceiling windows, was less common in the 1980's but the owner's wanted a family gathering space where the entire family could congregate while prepping meals, dining or relaxing in front of the fireplace on cooler evenings. Again, ahead of their time, a separate Muskoka room was built just off of the main living area to provide a more private space to relax and recharge, with the same fabulous lake views. After dinner, step down from the dining area to the spacious lower level family room, with a direct walk-out to the stone patio, and enjoy after dinner drinks while watching a movie.

Three well-appointed bedrooms are on the main level and the palatial lake facing master bedroom, with floor to ceiling windows and its own 4-piece ensuite, is on the upper level. Sunrises are important to the owners, so part of the bucket list in the original design was to be able to wake to the view of the sun rising over the lake, spectacular, mission accomplished!

Start your mornings off on a choice of decks, cup of coffee in hand, and immerse yourself in the amazing panoramic lake view! The shallow entry at the 100 feet of waterfront is crystal clear with beautiful soft river rocks and the water at the end of the dock is 3-4 feet deep, perfect for jumping into the lake to cool off on hot summer days. With a canoe, kayaks and stand-up paddle boards at your disposal, be sure to get out on the lake and explore, especially in the morning when the water is at its calmest. The lower level lakeside deck is a favourite place to gather all day and into the early evenings, providing ample space for entertaining while taking in the beautiful scenic backdrop.
