About this home

Imagine owning one of the most coveted stretches of waterfront in Prince Edward County, where over 160 feet of shoreline meets the tranquil waters at the end of the Sandbanks Outlet Beach. Set on 1.8 acres at the quiet end of Welsh Lane, this is a rare waterfront offering with broad, sunlit clearings framed by a variety of mature trees that provide beauty, privacy, and a timeless sense of place. One of only three freehold properties on the lane, this exceptional parcel has remained in the same family for generations, its story woven into the rich history of Prince Edward County. Here, the rhythm of the seasons has shaped a property defined by heritage, nature, and enduring memories. The historic home stands with quiet dignity, centred around a charming stone fireplace that has welcomed family and friends for decades. While the home would benefit from cosmetic updates, it offers an extraordinary opportunity to restore and reimagine a true County treasure. A flexible layout currently staged as 4 bedrooms (see floorplans for options for more)! The shoreline is where this property truly shines. A beautiful sandy "upper beach" area invites long summer days by the water, while the gently sloping pebbled shoreline provides easy, natural access for wading, swimming, launching a kayak or paddleboard, or simply watching the sunsets over Lake Ontario. It is the kind of waterfront that appeals to every generation. Just beyond your shoreline lies the world-renowned Sandbanks Provincial Park, celebrated for its iconic sand dunes, spectacular beaches, and crystal-clear waters. From this peaceful setting, you're perfectly positioned to enjoy everything Prince Edward County has to offer: award-winning wineries, farm-to-table dining, charming villages, artists' studios, and endless opportunities to explore one of Ontario's most beloved destinations. Properties like this are rarely offered. More than a waterfront home, 26B Welsh Lane is a legacy property waiting for its next stewards.
