Graciously perched along 200 Ft of assessed & due West-facing idyllic Muskoka shore, in the desirable Port Sandfield/Minett corridor, this olde Muskoka family cottage circa 1932 has been updated and cherished by the same owner for over 45 years. Proudly offered to market for the 1st time in almost half a century. A sunset landmark along the Joe River with one of the best vantage points for extended long water views & everlasting sunsets. A tree-lined, welcoming, private road approach, leads to the handsome 3 bedroom lakeside cottage with westerly master suite wing, rambling principal rooms with bar area, cook's kitchen, living room anchored by a stone fireplace with electric insert, opening to a beautiful Muskoka room. Cleverly spread out bedrooms, a workshop, and wonderful water views from most rooms. Recent upgrades include newer roof shingles, newer furnace, and decking, upgraded Aquarobic septic system, and crib work. Appealing circa 2005 single-storey boathouse with oversized slip & electric lift, 2nd exterior covered slip, and wonderful dock area. Deep and shallow, crystal clear waters, gentle topography, and towering pine trees sing lazy hazy summer days by the water's edge. Carport attached to the cottage. A fully turnkey waterfront offering in move-in ready condition, with so many "check list" criteria met. Would also serve as a fantastic islander's jump-off spot, with drive-to-the-back door convenient road access and very gentle land. A superb offering in every way.
