Welcome to your private country sanctuary on 8.78 scenic acres. This property offers the ultimate blend of rustic charm, functional living, and endless flexibility-all situated on a year-round, township-maintained road near Kinmount, Minden, and a few minutes from Haliburton, with a manageable drive to the GTA. The home features two bright bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a warm open-concept layout with plank hardwood flooring, pine cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Entertaining is effortless with a dining room walkout to the porch and a living room sliding door opening to an expansive deck that spans two sides of the home. Character abounds throughout, a lower-level family room featuring classic wainscoting and a cozy den with pine walls. The finished walkout basement adds great extra living space and holds outstanding potential for a future in-law suite or extended family accommodations, while a pellet stove and forced-air electric furnace provide efficient dual heat sources. Just steps away, a charming 16' x 12' bunkie offers a private retreat for visiting guests. Outdoors, roughly two fenced acres provide the perfect setup for pets, hobby farming, or recreation. Storage and workshop capabilities are unmatched thanks to an impressive lineup of outbuildings: a 20' x 18' shed, a 28' x 20' heated garage with an attached 12' x 20' rear storage area, and a massive 62' x 27' barn. Complete with a paved circular driveway for easy access and parking, this versatile acreage is the ultimate setting to bring your rural living vision to life.
