This stunning four-season Lake Joseph cottage enjoys a sunny south-facing setting overlooking the sheltered waters of Avon Bay. Just minutes from Port Sandfield and Port Carling by car or boat, the property offers premium waterfront living with convenient access to Muskoka's renowned restaurants, golf courses and boutiques. Offering five bedrooms and two bathrooms, the cottage has been thoughtfully updated while preserving the warmth and character of a classic lake house. The bright kitchen features white stone counters and a large island ideal for entertaining friends and family. The adjoining living room has large sliding glass doors that lead to a lakeside deck making it easy to access the BBQ. On the lower level, the spacious family room with walkout provides a separate, cozy space for movie nights or watching sports after a day on the water. The gently sloping property leads to a level shoreline with few steps to the water and a hard-packed sandy entry great for launching paddle boards or kayaks. The newly completed, beautifully appointed boathouse features motorized glass garage doors and screens that open to a second lakeside sitting area. Custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, a striking stone propane fireplace and mini-split air conditioning make entertaining by the water effortless, while a convenient powder room completes the space. Elegant stone landscaping link the cottage and boathouse to the shoreline, offering two distinct fire pit areas and a private lakeside hot tub. An automatic standby generator provides added peace of mind, ensuring comfort through every season. This exceptional property is being marketed and sold furnished, making it entirely ready for your family's immediate enjoyment.
