About this listing

This classic 1936 log cottage on Head Lake offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and is just 1.5 hours from the GTA. The current family is the 2nd owner and have enjoyed summers at the lake since 1969. They are ready for a new owner who can start their own summer memories. Set on a west-facing, 0.94 acre lot with 200 feet of clean, shallow shoreline, the property enjoys full afternoon sun and stunning sunset views, complete with a boathouse at the waters edge. Ideal for swimming, paddling, fishing, and relaxing, this is a true cottage-country escape with direct access to the QE2 Wildland Provincial Park. The 1030 square foot interior features 2 bedrooms and a sunroom and deck overlooking the lake. An open-concept living area is anchored by a open stone fireplace creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The majority of the windows were upgraded to thermo-panes in the last 10 years. The cottage is offered fully furnished and ready to enjoy. A concrete dry boathouse is tied into a concrete break wall and connects to an extended 40 foot pole dock (to be installed once sold). This boat house could easily be re-purposed to include a roof top deck. 31 gentle steps to the water. The Shore Road Allowance is owned and there is a large building envelope ready for future development. There are 4 sheds and a 2 seater outdoor privy. Across the road you have deeded access to a 127-acre private forest that offers walking trails. Owners also enjoy shared access to a playground park maintained by the Sunset Beach Cottagers Association. There are several internet options. Easy access off a year-round municipal road, weekly rubbish and recycling pickup, and a public boat launch nearby, this property is as convenient as it is charming. Just 6 mins to Norland, 15 to Coboconk, and 35 mins to Orillia, it's a peaceful retreat with easy access to amenities. Book a showing.
