Your year-round cottage dream comes to life on the south shore of Balsam Lake - a rare offering with 100 ft of pristine waterfront, sandy wade-in shoreline, and breathtaking sunsets across the bay. Set on a municipally maintained road for true four-season access, this property delivers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience. Located in a quiet, protected south bay known for calm waters and natural wind shelter, it offers a peaceful lakeside escape with no cottages across the road - just mature trees, open sky, and uninterrupted views. Enjoy exceptional swimming right from your shoreline, plus boating, canoeing, waterskiing, and outstanding fishing. With direct access to the Trent-Severn Waterway, your waterfront lifestyle extends far beyond the bay. The 3-bedroom cottage blends rustic charm with comfort, featuring warm pine wood interiors, beamed ceilings, and a cozy wood-burning stove for all-season enjoyment. A spacious 2-tier deck overlooks the lake, while the 6' x 50' dock provides the perfect setting for docking, lounging, and unforgettable evenings by the water. An exceptional value in upgrades includes newer windows, updated plumbing, newer electrical panel (100 Amp), two hot water tanks, newer water pump, updated 3-piece bathroom, and a brand-new septic system (2025) designed to accommodate a future larger home if desired. Just under 10 minutes to Fenelon Falls and 30 minutes to Lindsay with full services including hospitals, shopping, and amenities. Short term rental license is already in place for the season, making this an attractive option for personal use, investment, or both. A rare year-round waterfront opportunity where lifestyle, location, and value align-all under 1.5 hours from Toronto.
