Tucked into a storybook setting just a one-minute stroll from the sandy public beach on Buck Lake, this cherished country property offers the kind of lifestyle buyers dream of in North Muskoka. Offered for the first time by its original owners, this custom-built home sits gracefully on 7 + acres of peaceful, private landscape - where towering trees, natural beauty, and quiet surroundings create an everyday escape from the ordinary. Step inside to a thoughtfully designed main floor featuring two bedrooms and two bathrooms, ideal for comfortable one-level living. The heart of the home is the inviting country-style kitchen, complete with a built-in banquet and cozy breakfast nook - perfect for slow mornings and family gatherings. The warm glow of a propane fireplace anchors the living room, while a walkout leads seamlessly to a charming Muskoka room, where you can unwind and take in the sights and sounds of nature. The lower level offers a partially finished basement with a third bedroom and a dedicated workshop space - ideal for hobbies, projects, or additional guest accommodations. Function meets convenience with an attached oversized double garage featuring inside entry to a practical mudroom and laundry area - perfect for country living in every season. For the hobbyist or craftsman, a detached workshop provides exceptional additional space. At the same time, the original homestead log cabin - with its own bedroom and bath adds a rare nostalgic touch, evoking a true "yesteryear Muskoka" experience for guests or extended family. Located close to snowmobile/ATV trails (and a bonus approx. 15 min from the Sequin Trail too), this property offers the best of both worlds: serene rural privacy with effortless recreational enjoyment at your doorstep. All this and a scenic 15 min drive to the heart of Huntsville. (id:2471)
