A rare historical offering reimagined for civilized island living. Centrally located on upper Lake Joseph, the private island with campfire Islet is craftily developed to maintain a natural environment boasting a main cottage with a golden hard-packed sand beach and hardscape that connects to the 2-story 3 slip boat house. Pathways around the island with multiple seating vantage points connect to an expansive 2 slip boat port with ample parking and lit dock space with level steps to the cottage. Every convenience is considered with a separate grocery dock with a lift directly to the kitchen. Only minutes away by boat, your private landing renders a newly constructed main cottage, a 2-level storage coach house, and a well-appointed garden shed. Ample parking and driveways accommodate vehicle access directly to the covered boat port which is only 1:45 minutes from Highway 401 at 400.
Firmly placed on Muskoka granite, the grandfathered main cottage on the point provides panoramic big lake views with multiple exposures. The Tamarack build exudes quality and craftsmanship with detailed stonework and traditional post and beam construction that gives warmth, and the extensive walls of glass with sliding doors connect you with the elements for a rustic yet sophisticated space. Wrap around Epay decking and multiple seating areas with walkouts on the main and lower levels spare no view. A nautical theme continues with grand dining overlooking the water and your private Islet. The primary on the main floor has operating sliders for the evening breeze, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like ensuite. The two upper-floor bedrooms with well-appointed ensuites have generous separate covered deck sitting areas. The lower level has an additional living area with a bar and walk-out, and a 4th bedroom for overflow. Beyond the Laundry, a hidden mancave workshop leads to convenient storage with oversized ground-level doors.
Your family and guests will enjoy luxury waterside living at the boat house where outdoor living on expansive Epay docks and decking continue. With 2 indoor slips and a 3rd fully covered open-air submersible slip to appease the most avid boater with plenty of room to entertain in your choice of sun or shade. Retire over the water in the spacious living quarters with 2 bedrooms, and 3 pc bath.
Aptly designed, the main Landing cottage built in 2020 provides home away from home comfort and additional peace of mind. Polished floors with overhead doors will safely house collectors' prized possessions while you relax by the stone woodburning fireplace to watch a match, or the weather through glass wall views over 206 of Lake Joseph frontage. Should you decide not to shovel stairs in the winter, the elevator arrives at your landing suite with a luxury hotel feel, complete with laundry, a kitchenette, and a large Epay viewing deck with living space that showcases an outdoor wood-burning fireplace.
The 2-acre landing with level Lake Joseph waterfront has an additional storage coach house providing more indoor parking with 3 overhead doors and radiant heat on both floors to house all your seasonal and recreational vehicles. Landscape lighting and level driveways make your Island travel seamless as you unload libations at the covered and lit boat port from trunk to bow. Perhaps youll refresh and wade into the hardpack sandy shoreline or dive off the dock to wash off your commute. Have it all.
