This chalet's the one for lake lovers. You get deeded access to Peninsula Lake, and it's a real sandy beach with a dock. The photos show boats and a paddleboarder right off the shore, so you're basically living the Muskoka summer life. Built in 2000, it's one of the newer places in Hidden Valley Highlands, and it shows. Main floor is open concept with a living room, dining area, kitchen, a bedroom, and a 3-piece bath with laundry. There's an electric fireplace and vinyl flooring that's practical for wet swimsuits and sandy feet. Upstairs, the primary suite is your own retreat with vaulted ceilings and French doors that open to a private deck. Ensuite has a soaker tub with separate shower, which is nice after a day on the water. Lower level is a partially finished walkout with a third bedroom, a bathroom that's roughed in, and a kitchenette - just needs flooring and some finishing to make it a proper in-law suite. Outside, there's a wrap-around deck with a screened gazebo, plus a patio area with potted plants and outdoor seating. Parking's easy with three spots. It's on a 105 x 164.5 ft lot, so you've got room to spread out. Price is $449,000, which is below the $650k median nearby. You're 500 meters from Hidden Valley Resort for skiing and golf, and Huntsville's grocery stores and restaurants are about 6 minutes away. If you want a place that feels like a permanent vacation, this is it.
