Gravenhurst, Ontario

Long before modern cottages lined the shoreline, this island's story had already begun. Perched to capture what is believed to be Kahshe Lake's finest western sunset, this extraordinary 7+ acre island offers nearly 3,000 feet of shoreline and a legacy rarely found today. With severance potential into three separate lots + (subject to approvals), this exceptional property also presents a RARE opportunity for generational planning, allowing family members to create their own private retreats while preserving this remarkable island legacy. Built in 1938 by renowned Muskoka log builders Sam and Carl Cook-whose craftsmanship lives on throughout the area, even lending their name to Sam Cook Road at Housey's Rapids-this remarkable cottage was constructed from logs harvested on and around the island, floated across the lake, then hauled up by horse and pulley, one log at a time. Maintained and respectfully restored to honour its historic character, the unique four-bedroom cottage remains rich with authentic charm, from its warm log interior to its original narrow-strip maple flooring milled locally nearly nine decades ago. The owner has meticulously protected the logs with premium Solignum stain every 3-4 years since it was built-generations of exceptional care. Beyond the cottage, winding paths lead through whispering pines and granite outcrops to the island's opposite shore, where two chairs offer the perfect place to pause. Take a stroll to the sandy waiting pool where generations learned to swim. A fully equipped waterside guest cabin, sleeper cabin, tool shed and matching LOG outhouse enhance the authentic Muskoka experience. An expanse of level land, once home to a tennis court, offers endless recreational possibilities. Enjoy a separate Bell Road parcel with a single-car garage for additional access and mainland storage, plus an easily transferable boat slip at Rockhaven. This is a rare piece of Kahshe Lake history, lovingly preserved and ready for its next chapter. (id:42776)

"Rare offering" and "rare opportunity" are words sometimes over used in real estate advertising, but for this property they are the perfect description.

It's all part of an old homestead that includes the original cabin situated on the shores of Wolkin Lake, just minutes from the Village of Dorset.

This property sits all by itself at the other end of the lake totally surrounded by forested privacy. The land around the cabin is almost level to the lake with a beautiful view across the lake. This is an off-grid property with the perfect southern exposure and sufficient cleared area to make solar power an easy option. At present a portable generator allows for limited lighting and there are propane appliances. There is an old gravity-fed water system in place. The cabin itself is usable and has a lot of charm if you love old buildings, but it does need TLC. There are 2 bedrooms on the main floor plus an open living/dining area. There is a "bathroom" of sorts but no septic system. The second floor has another separate bedroom and a large open sleeping space. An inviting covered verandah runs the width of the building facing the lake.

Algonquin Highlands, Ontario

Very inviting family friendly 3 bedroom cottage on picturesque Loon Bay on Kawagama Lake. A good portion of the bay is Crown land, as is the property to the rear of the cottage. ATV and snowmobile trails are nearby. Loon Bay is a hidden gem that's large enough for tubing or water skiing but is protected from rough water. The cottage has had many upgrades and improvements. The main floor features a spacious open concept dining/kitchen area leading to a sunken living room complete with fireplace. Several sets of sliding doors open onto a generous lakeside deck. There is one bedroom and a full bath on this level plus laundry facilities. The upper level houses an additional bedroom plus the primary bedroom. The primary bedroom overlooks the lake and has a 2 pc ensuite. The lakefront area is pure fun with a slide for the kids, lots of dock space and a large decked area to enjoy the view. There is good water depth for jumping and diving and the shoreline is very clean. You can enjoy sun on the dock for almost the entire day. A dryland boathouse has been repurposed into a family living space where the kids can play games or the entire family can relax together. A single detached garage has a loft above for extra sleeping and storage space. The cottagers on this bay treasure their privacy so tackling a winding, bumpy cottage road doesn't slow them down a bit and they wouldn't change it. It's only 1.5 km in length but you need the clearance and AWD of an SUV. However, there is potential for an easier route to the cottage that could be developed. You're only 10 minutes from the Village of Dorset and because vehicles can't speed it's safe for kids and pets. The road is privately maintained during the winter months and there is parking at the top of the driveway for the winter season. The cottage is fully winterized. (id:42776)
