1918 bungalow on Lake Muskoka with 385 feet of shoreline and just over an acre of land. You're getting three buildings here: the main cottage, a bunkie, and a two-storey boathouse with living quarters above. The boathouse also has a double wet boat port attached to its single slip. All three buildings have their own bedrooms, bathrooms, and screened porches, so there's plenty of room for everyone while you figure out what to restore and what to redevelop. Inside the main cottage you'll find wood finishes, two fireplaces, and a layout that's seen a lot of summers since 1918. The lot itself is treed, sloped, and rolling, with rocky sections and a gazebo right at the water's edge. There's no basement, no garage, and parking is basically non-existent, but a rear path links the bunkie and the main cottage. You're 5.4 km from Olivers Coffee, 5.6 km from the Kee to Bala, 7.3 km from Johnston's Cranberry Marsh, and 9 km from the Muskoka Lakes Museum. Hardy Lake Provincial Park is a 4 km drive. Annual taxes are $8,232 and the place comes with an updated hot water heater and water system. At $1,300,000, you're paying for the shoreline and the potential, not the finishes. It's a project, but it's a project on Lake Muskoka.
