Humble, no-frills, and in a stellar spot this modest 3-bedroom, 1-bath, 3-season cottage (with shared private waterfront access) faces the Tay Shore Trail (an 18.5-km paved segment of the 28,000 km Trans Canada Trail and the longest recreational multi-use trail network in the world). Step into a simple, functional layout: an open kitchen/dining/living area flowing to the front deck, plus a wooded backyard for easy outdoor living and exploring nature. A wall heater takes the edge off cool spring and fall days. The structure sits on piers with a crawl space. A single-car garage is believed to be fully on the property. Water: the current supply is shared with a neighbouring cottage and will be disconnected before closing. The Buyer will be responsible for installing a well after closing and should complete due diligence on costs, timing, and permitting. Lifestyle bonus: included is a shared ownership interest in a nearby waterfront lot on Sturgeon Bay (off Georgian Bay), to the left of Tanners Park, accessible via a private road and just a short walk away a place to gather, launch a kayak or canoe, cast a line, swim, or play horseshoes with the family. From here, you're about 15 minutes to Midland and roughly 30 minutes to Barrie or Orillia an easy commute to amenities while keeping that cottage-country feel. The irregular, approximately 0.34-acre parcel offers room to tinker or plan: ~48.72 frontage on Crossingview Ln, ~220.02 depth on the left, ~37.45 across the back, and ~363.68 on the right (Buyer to verify all measurements and boundaries). Keep it as a simple weekend retreat, or explore a teardown/rebuild for a future year-round home strictly subject to municipal approvals, conservation authority input (if applicable), and the Buyers own investigations. This is not the time to delay or sit on the fence. Action will reward one lucky Buyer of this rare 'better than waterfront' package deal. (id:2471)
