About this home

Private islands almost never come up for sale on Lake Muskoka. This is your shot.Tucked into Shanty Bay - one of the lake's best-kept secrets. Solid community, epic paddling and waterskiing water, and close to town and the city - yet most boaters have never even come back this far. 1.2 acres of flat, usable land with sun from sunrise to sunset and views in every direction. Deep water on one side for diving and docking, a shallow sandy entry on the other for kids, grandparents, and dogs - this island works for every generation of your family. Same family for over 40 years, now ready for its next chapter. Septic and services are already in - a head start most vacant island lots can't offer. The existing 4-bed, 2.5-bath cottage and bunkie w bath are fully livable right now while you plan your next move, whether that's a renovation or eventually building new. This is the kind of island that inspired Sterling Point - no script required to live it. Paddle it, ski it, fish it.
