Dorset, Ontario

This cottage is situated on a large, unique parcel of land that is just less than 3 acres in area and has almost 1000 feet of shoreline. It is a totally level piece of land on a gentle point with sunset exposure and amazing potential. Very few properties become available in this desirable area of Kawagama Lake. The existing cottage is modest but well-built and is fully winterized. It has a full walkout basement that could be readily developed to provide additional living space. It is situated near the rear of the property and has the privacy of a standard waterfront lot. But the location doesn’t take full advantage of the beautiful setting closer to the point. There is a lovely cleared area of sandy shoreline but the remaining shoreline and the point have been left in a largely natural state that could be developed further to compliment a new structure. If building something that totally suits your needs appeal to you, this property is ideal. You can use the existing cottage while your dream takes shape. Situated on municipally maintained year round road for easy access. (id:51398)
