the water and endless potential for future enjoyment. The cottage itself is full of character and offers a great footprint for renovation, updating, or future redevelopment. While dated and in need of improvements, the setting and structure provide an excellent opportunity to create your dream waterfront retreat. The kitchen opens to the combined dining and living room, where a full wall of south-facing windows captures breathtaking lake views and fills the space with natural light. The layout includes a main level bedroom, second floor bedroom, 3-piece bathroom, and an open second level family room overlooking the main living area below, offering incredible lake views and flexible use for additional sleeping space or relaxing lakeside living. An older single-level concrete block boathouse sits at the shoreline and requires work, but offers an excellent starting point with valuable existing footprint and potential. Located just 10 minutes from Historic Perth and only one hour to the west end of Ottawa, this property offers the perfect balance of peaceful lakeside living and convenient access to amenities. Set on a well-maintained private roadway with some year-round neighbours nearby, this is a rare opportunity to secure prime waterfront on Big Rideau Lake. (id:62650)
