Lake Couchiching views with trail access in Orillia

You're right across the street from Lake Couchiching here, and the back gate opens straight onto the Lightfoot Trail system. That's a rare combo. The side-split layout is practical: living spaces on the main floor, three bedrooms up top, and a rec room in the lower level. Hardwood floors run through most of the main areas, freshly refinished, though two of the bedrooms have carpet instead. Kitchen gets good natural light and has newer appliances, including a dishwasher and a separate freezer. The bathroom is a single full bath on the upper level, nothing fancy but clean. The lot is 60 by 98 feet, so there's a decent front yard and a fenced backyard that connects to the trails. Parking's fine with space for three cars off the driveway, no garage though. The house needs some cosmetic updates here and there, but it's move-in ready. You're a short walk (about 8 minutes) to Couchiching Beach Park, and downtown Orillia is just over a kilometre away, with spots like Mariposa Market and Brewery Bay Food Co. Schools nearby include Orillia District Collegiate and Park Street Collegiate. At $725,000, it's above the area's median price, but the lakefront location and trail access explain that. Taxes run about $3,860 a year. If you want to bike or walk along the water every day, this is a solid pick.
