About this home

Enjoy exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and sweeping views across Lake of Bays from this architecturally designed home set on 154 acres of rolling Muskoka woodland. Positioned to capture striking skylines and spectacular sunsets, the property offers multiple walkouts, tranquil outdoor spaces, and year-round appeal. Timeless Muskoka character is paired with thoughtful comfort throughout, including solid clear cherry flooring on the main level, soaring wood-beamed ceilings, expansive windows, pocket doors, and warm, inviting finishes. A wood-lined screened Muskoka room opens onto a glass deck with far-reaching views, while Muskoka flagstone steps lead to a rustic timber-and-beam-covered entrance-an ideal spot for morning coffee. The main-floor primary suite features scenic views, a private balcony, his-and-her closets, and a 5-piece ensuite with a Jacuzzi tub, walk-in glass shower, custom cabinetry, and double sinks. Upstairs, the loft offers a private bath, two guest bedrooms, and an open lounge framed by a dramatic two-storey wall of glass overlooking the Lake of Bays landscape. A finished walkout basement adds versatile space for relaxing or entertaining. Located on Fox Point Road between Dwight and Dorset, the property is approximately 20 minutes from downtown Huntsville and offers convenient access to the hospital, shopping, dining, renowned resorts, and golf. Algonquin Park enhances the area's exceptional outdoor appeal. Ideal for buyers seeking a meaningful lifestyle change, this rare offering blends privacy, comfort, and natural beauty in an exceptional four-season Muskoka setting.
