Welcome to your private country sanctuary nestled on a picturesque 2-acre lot overlooking a tranquil pond where birds and wildlife gather. This thoughtfully designed custom-built home with 3800sq. feet of living space offers the perfect blend of space, comfort, and Muskoka charm - ideal for extended family living or hosting overnight guests. Enjoy warm summer breezes from the expansive wrap-around veranda that flows seamlessly into a large, covered deck - perfect for outdoor dining and BBQs while taking in peaceful views of the pond and surrounding forest. Inside, the open-concept main floor welcomes you with soaring cathedral ceilings and gleaming red ash hardwood floors. The spacious primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main level, complete with patio doors leading to the backyard deck and pond views. A generous 4-piece bathroom and main floor laundry add to the home's functionality. Upstairs, a versatile loft with a wet bar opens through patio doors onto two large private balconies offering stunning forest views. Two additional bedrooms and another full 4-piece bathroom complete the upper level. The lower level presents incredible potential for approximately 1,400 sq. ft. of additional family accommodations. With above-grade windows and two walkouts to the backyard, the space is bright and welcoming. It currently includes a finished fourth bedroom, a third 4-piece bathroom, a spacious rec room, and a family room that could easily be completed as an eat-in kitchen. (Kitchen cabinets are included in the sale but not installed.) Adding even more charm is the adorable bunkie beside the home - perfect as a studio, workshop, or extra guest accommodations. Located just a short drive to town and only five minutes from the public beach on Prosect Lake, you can enjoy a refreshing swim or launch your watercraft for a day of fishing. This is Muskoka living at its finest - where you can work, live, and play surrounded by nature, privacy, and timeless country beauty. (id:2471)
