This one's all about the back garden. Oversized deck, covered gazebo, and a fully fenced yard with mature greenery. It feels like a private retreat, but you're only a 5-minute walk from downtown Bobcaygeon. Inside, it's been fully renovated - open concept living room and kitchen flow together. Two bedrooms up top (the second has built-in cupboards), plus a bathroom with laundry tucked in. The detached garage is huge and insulated, with space for a car and workshop gear. At 57.8 x 96.6 feet, the lot's level and easy to maintain. Central air and forced air propane heating keep things comfy. The exterior's vinyl siding, so no painting. You can walk to Lock 32, the farmers' market, or grab coffee and watch boats go by. Lindsay and Peterborough are a quick drive for hospitals and bigger stores. Property taxes ran $2,455 last year. This is a small footprint that packs a lot of living into it. With list at $554,000 and four active listings nearby carrying a $524,000 median, this one's priced to compete. Sold comps in the last month? None yet, so you've got room to negotiate.
