About this home

Discover the potential of this waterfront property on beautiful Tooke Lake - a smaller lake renowned for its exceptional water clarity and peaceful setting. Enjoy spectacular western exposure, offering breathtaking sunsets from your own shoreline. The gently sloping, partially treed lot provides easy access to the water, with a shallow entry that's perfect for little ones, as well as for launching a canoe or kayak. The 205-foot frontage is a rarity in this market, offering a luxurious and private waterfront setting. The property sits on a year-round municipal road (plowed in winter), making it ideal for both seasonal enjoyment and full-time living .Located just a four-minute drive to Baysville and Lake of Bays, and about 20 minutes to Huntsville or Bracebridge, you'll be perfectly positioned to enjoy boating, fishing, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing, golfing (6-7 courses within a 30-minute drive), and all the recreational opportunities Muskoka has to offer. The existing cottage offers a blank canvas: a 3-bedroom, 1-bath, approximately 1,500 sq ft, open-concept "old Muskoka" style building with a wood-burning stone fireplace, ready for renovation or a full rebuild to create your dream waterfront retreat. The septic system was replaced in 2001, and a 60-foot drilled well is already in place. The cottage sits close to the shoreline - approximately 38 feet from the high water mark - and benefits from legal non-conforming (grandfathered) status. This offers renovators the rare advantage of working within an existing close-to-water footprint; buyers considering a full rebuild are encouraged to confirm current setback requirements with the Township and/or Conservation Authority .If you've been searching for an affordable way to own waterfront property in a desirable Muskoka location, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
