Get ready for the summer of 2025 at this beautiful, fully winterized cottage in the heart of Muskoka. Just minutes from the shops and services of Bracebridge and a 2-hour drive from the GTA, this property blends the relaxed rhythm of waterfront living with everyday conveniences, ideal for young families and multi-generational enjoyment alike. Set on a gently sloping, wooded lot with 105' of sandy, hard-packed shoreline perfect for kids to wade in, the waterfront is as versatile as it is picturesque, offering both shallow entry and deep water off the dock for all your swimming, paddling, and boating adventures. Inside, the cottage exudes warmth and comfort with pine accents, light floors, and a cozy propane stove that invites you to unwind after a sun-soaked day outdoors. The open-concept layout features three bedrooms and over 1,050 square feet of space, with a central kitchen complete with a large island perfect for gathering around. Picture your mornings with coffee, watching the sunrise and river views, and your evenings lit by the crackle of a fire under the stars with your friends. A screened porch, multiple deck areas, and the potential to expand with an additional deck make indoor-outdoor living effortless. This mostly turnkey retreat also features a heated bathroom floor, spray foam insulation in the crawlspace, and an energy-efficient heat pump with air conditioning, making it as comfortable in the snow as in the sun. With three storage sheds, a floating dock, and a fire pit for classic cottage nights, this fully furnished retreat provides an incredible way to enter the Muskoka real estate market and start building new family memories for years to come.
