This is the cottage you have been waiting for. A mere 5 kilometres from downtown Bracebridge along the river, this bungalow on a southwest level lot couldn’t be more conveniently located. The large new dock in a very protected and calm inlet is ideal for boat docking and swimming (deep water), and the expanse of Lake Muskoka is just around the corner. This “smart” home is a year old, turnkey and with every convenience and gadget you could ask for, including 48” gas range, ambient heating, and remote controlled: lights; garage door; lock; thermostat; Sonos system etc. The fire pit looks out towards the lake with towering pines providing a secure spot for the zip line. The sandy beach next to the dock is perfect for the kids, kayaks, paddle boards, and furry friends. Storage is abundant with a full basement crawl space, and garage. The open plan kitchen, great room has patio doors which open out onto a deck, perfect for al fresco dining. The virtually wall to wall windows look out towards the lake. Stunning views from all 4 bedrooms. The laundry room is spacious with plenty of storage. The home is located on a secluded quiet road, with large front yard and circular driveway (parking for at least 6 cars). This is a perfect place to travel to, or a great escape from the city.
