‘Exqui site ly designed with breathtaking views across the lake,” this 8,000- square- foot cottage was built with outstanding attention to detail, says listing agent Anita Latner of Anita Latner Realty.
It has hemlock floors, walls of glass and pine walls and cathedral ceilings. The cottage offers 360- degree views. “Private decks off of its master and main bedrooms enhance its magnificence,” she says.
The dining room has win- dows on three sides overlooking the lake, as well as a floor- to- ceiling river rock fireplace. An even larger river rock fireplace is a living room focal point.
The white kitchen has an island and a sitting area so guests can keep the cook company.
The open second-floor hallway overlooks the living area and kitchen.
Artistically hand- crafted fixtures adorn its interior and “the architecturally designed home is high tech,” Latner says. “You can monitor it from wherever you are.”
The property offers 200 ft. of Precambrian shoreline. It has a two- slip, two- storey boathouse capable of mooring a seaplane.
The decks are perfect for sunbathing and entertaining, she says. “An outdoor sculpted steel fire pit, shaped as the petals of a flower, is encircled in a Muskoka stone patio.”
Popular for people on the go, the property is close to Muskoka Airport, which is rated for aircraft as large as the Boeing 737, the airport’s website says.
