A stunning restoration of a 110 year old Georgian Bay Lakehouse in 2012 added functionality and modern conveniences while preserving the historic charm of the original home. The 4 bedroom 2 bath Lakehouse features extensive entertaining spaces inside and out-from a large living room anchored by a stacked stone fireplace, charming dining room enclosed by a bank of original paned windows, full length screened porch, and multi-tiered deck offering a variety of relaxing spaces including shaded seating, sun loungers and a hot tub, all oriented west over glorious Georgian Bay sunsets. A new addition, perfectly proportioned and positioned at right angles to the original house, features new amenities and conveniences; a chef's kitchen and bar, main floor office, laundry, heated floors and a 3 ton heat pump providing air conditioning and heating. The Heat pump, a new metal roof and the new shingled addition allow for three season living in great comfort. The Lakehouse boasts long, sweeping water views yet is sheltered from big water. Every window offers a different vignette; quiet coves, shoals and crystal clear water. The Boathouse, perfectly situated behind a natural shoal breakwater, has been rebuilt with new cribs, docks and a new roof. The property's 1.4 acres, beautifully landscaped with perennial gardens, is traversed with boardwalks and seating niches to take in the beauty of the Bay. The Lake House and the Boathouse present a charming combination of past and present, in a remarkable Georgian Bay setting.
