Perfect family cottage for sale
Home
Perfect cottage for kids - 2 hrs from Toronto - great swimming!
Privacy plus on 1.83 acre island in southern archipelago on
Cordova Lake. Mixed hardwood with large white pines, exposed rock outcroppings
and thousands of feet of shoreline with long views up this springfed lake,
which forms part of the Crowe River system in the Kawarthas. Great deep water
swimming off main dock and swimming platform, a shallow beach area for the tots,
as well as fishing for the sports enthusiast. Thirty bird species spotted on
the lake so far!
A view of the water from every room in a solid, three season
structure with large principal rooms. Pine covered interior throughout, the cottage
features living room with high ceilings and solid wall of bookcase, a large
family room with extra sleeping bunks, three bedrooms on the second floor and two
bathrooms (one cedar covered three piece, and a tiled two piece).  Total square footage is 1,500, and there is
baseboard heating, landline telephone, high speed broadband delivered by
satellite, plus good cell coverage.
The
cottage is just over two hours from Toronto, 45 minutes north west of
Peterborough, and two minutes from the landing at the end of Fish Hatchery Rd.,
where there is parking for car and boat. We are selling with a 12 ft aluminum
boat and 5.5 hp motor, paddle boat, small sailboat for island hopping and
interior furnishings. So a "turnkey" package for the right family
looking to take advantage right away of all that pretty Lake Cordova has to
offer.
