429 Hardwood Ridge Road W, Lanark Highlands

Charming Waterfront Cottage at 429 Hardwood Ridge, on Patterson Lake. Your Private Retreat Awaits! Nestled high among the trees with stunning water views, this cozy 2-bedroom cottage, offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and natural serenity. Complete with a versatile loft for extra sleeping space, this fully furnished getaway is ready for you to move in and start making memories. The cottage exterior is painted green with white trim and features dormer windows on the upper level; wooden stairs lead down from the house to the waterfront, with a set of stone steps and a pathway providing easy access. Step into the sunroom, where 3 sides of windows offering panoramic views invite you to savor the summer breeze, bask in the sunshine, or watch the seasons change in comfort. (The sunroom functions as a covered, screened-in porch/gazebo with a wood ceiling and comfortable seating, ideal for bug-free summer evenings.) On cooler evenings, gather around the wood-burning fireplace for a warm and inviting atmosphere. Inside, the main living area showcases exposed wood beams and hardwood floors, with an open-plan kitchen and dining area (the kitchen features bright yellow cabinetry/appliances that add a cheerful, cottage feel). Outside, two bonfire spots create the perfect setting for starry nights, while your kayaks let you explore the serene waters at your leisure. Anglers will be thrilled with the fishing opportunities, with walleye, yellow pickerel, northern pike, and smallmouth bass just waiting to be caught. The shoreline includes a sandy beach area with Adirondack chairs and a bench for relaxing by the water, plus a private wooden dock with ladder for swimming and boat access; a modest stone retaining wall helps define the waterfront space. The property also features two storage sheds (one near the water and one by the laneway), ample parking on a gravel laneway and level spots for multiple vehicles, septic, running water from drilled well, and hydro for your convenience. An annual road maintenance fee of $400 ensures year-round access with gravel upkeep and snow removal. Sold as-is, where-is, with no warranties or representations, this rare waterfront retreat is a unique opportunity to own a slice of paradise. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape or an adventure-filled getaway, 429 Hardwood Ridge is ready to welcome you home. Less than 1 hour from Ottawa and 3 hrs from Toronto. (id:1945)
