About this listing

The day starts with a coffee in the great room-or out on the deck overlooking the lake-where light pours in through panoramic windows and the water is always in view. And it ends relaxing in the private hot tub before bed, the lake in view, quiet at the end of the day. In between, enjoy over 200 feet of level, swimmable waterfront and a sheltered harbour for your boat. Inside, the home offers 1,612 sq ft of finished space, centred around a nearly 750 sq ft open concept living and dining area with a cathedral ceiling and lake-facing windows. Sliding doors connect directly to the deck, making the transition from inside to outside seamless. The 3-bedroom layout includes a primary suite with 3-piece ensuite, walk-in closet with laundry chute, and direct access to the deck and private hot tub. There's plenty of space for how you live beyond the water. A 527 sq ft heated workshop/attached garage adds flexibility, and the 1,189 sq ft unfinished basement provides excellent storage or future rec room potential. The 1,654 sq ft detached garage plus 240 sq ft of upper storage offers room for vehicles, tools, and recreational gear. Heating is provided by a propane furnace (2019) and new cozy wood stove (WETT inspected, 2025). Additional updates include refinished wood floors (2025), new sliding doors (2025), and a new bathtub (2025). Separate electrical panel wired for a generator. Central A/C is serviced annually. Set on 1.72 acres, the property features perennial gardens, a large vegetable garden, and an established asparagus patch. Located just 5 km from the ferry on a paved municipal road, it offers a practical connection to the mainland while still feeling set apart. Located just a short ferry ride from Millhaven, Amherst Island is one of Eastern Ontario's best-kept secrets. Known for its welcoming community, natural beauty, and quiet lifestyle, the island offers a rare opportunity to enjoy waterfront living just 25 minutes from Kingston.
