You're a short boat ride from Lake Simcoe and the Trent-Severn Waterway, with no bridges to duck under. That's rare. This 3-bed, 1-bath bungalow sits on a quiet canal with 80 feet of frontage and a reinforced shoreline done in 2023. The dock is already there, so you can keep a decent-sized boat right out front. Inside, over $200k in upgrades make it feel fresh. Engineered hardwood runs through the open living and dining spaces, and the kitchen has new appliances. The primary suite is a good size, and the other two bedrooms share the main bath. There's a laundry room on the main floor, which is always handy. Central air and a tankless water heater keep things comfortable. Outside, the lot stretches back 230 feet with mature trees giving privacy. Parking's easy with a 5-car driveway and an attached garage. You're about 10 minutes from Orillia's shops and restaurants, and the GTA is under 2 hours away. Priced at $799,800, it's close to the median for similar waterfront places nearby, which have been moving in about 2 months. Taxes run around $3,314 annually. This is a solid choice for a weekend getaway or full-time water life.
