Ooooh.. that's nice, you think. "I could absolutely envision a plunge and float in that cool pool when those temps soar". You've cashed in the equity built in your urban home and are ready to retreat to a more peaceful, pastoral locale. High time to rest, relax and truly enjoy life. Great idea. Life is simply better here. Now you just need the perfect spot. Well, this gorgeous, Craftsman country home could be the one of your dreams. An entertainer's paradise, this unbelievably well-built, solid custom home sits perfectly for peace, privacy, and sweeping forested views filled with wildlife. All just 15 minutes from hip, happening Huntsville, arguably the best town in Muskoka. Loved, upgraded and meticulously maintained by the current owners, it's move-in ready. Nothing to do but open the wine and unpack the bathing suits.. or not. You're ensconced in nature with complete privacy! The sunken, high-end, pristine hot tub under clear, starry Muskoka skies awaits, and the resident deer, chipmunks, groundhogs n squirrels promise not to tell. Maybe you're already a longtime fan of this awesome area. You've got your network of peeps, love big-lake boating, though prefer to trade waterfront cottage maintenance and ever-rising taxes for lux, easy comfort. This forever home checks every box. There's a back-up generator too! Scenic Lake Vernon lies just down the road with marinas, boat slips and a dock for swimming or paddling. Plenty of space at home to winter the boat. With four acres of flat land, forest, gardens and decks, this country retreat is immensely enhanceable. There's already an oversized heated 2+ garage/workshop. Imagine building an art studio with rentable living space, a greenhouse, or fun, forest bunkie hide-out for the little ones. They'll love adventuring for frogs in the creek and pond. You'll be wooed by the waterfall that whooshes down the rocks each spring. Does this sound like the place you belong? Come and get it - because no other offers ALL of this!
