1353 Port Cunnington Road Lake Of Bays, Ontario P0A 1H0

$9,950,000

Cahirmore is a named estate on Lake of Bays, and the old Irish name, meaning roughly "great fort," has been earned. Its scale is genuinely rare: 2,320 feet of shoreline and 8.3 acres in a single parcel, on a lake where frontage is usually counted in tens or low hundreds of feet. In the 1940s, Mr. Hungerford of Ireland chose this point of land and built a summer home with large principal rooms, furnished with pieces from his years managing a sugar plantation in the Philippines. He added a boat shelter for his launch, the Nishnavi, mapped paths through the property's hills and valleys, and planted the flower and fern gardens near the house. In 1964 he passed Cahirmore to his niece, Mrs. Bell, and it stayed in the family for the next 56 years, host to countless driveway breakfasts, beach barbecues, garden dinners, weddings, and christenings. The irregular shoreline offers multiple exposures and a range of settings: open water for swimming, a private beach set apart, walkways and stairs to the water, and permanent docking in place, with original paths leading to natural lookout points behind. Ready to enjoy now, the cottage runs to nearly 5,000 square feet, with six bedrooms, four bathrooms, four fireplaces, and wood-panelled, light-filled principal rooms that carry the character of its era. Year-round road access makes it reachable in every season. Cahirmore can be enjoyed today, exactly as it stands, held as one estate-sized parcel, or considered for redevelopment subject to Township of Lake of Bays approval. This is a rare chance to own a substantial, named piece of Lake of Bays and shape its next chapter. (id:42776)
