A rare opportunity to own a classic cottage on beautiful Spruce Lake. Lovingly held by the original owner, this charming, partially winterized cottage offers the perfect setting for family getaways, summer adventures and creating generations of memories. Set on a large, flat and level 2-acre property, the cottage is surrounded by mature trees, offering excellent privacy and a peaceful natural setting. A generous grassy area around the cottage provides plenty of room for lawn games, outdoor gatherings and family fun, while the firepit area is ideal for relaxing under the stars. Enjoy a south-facing exposure and beautiful lake views from the cottage and dock. The shallow, hard-sand shoreline makes getting into the water easy and family-friendly, while Spruce Lake provides lots of room for boating, watersports, swimming and excellent fishing, its connection to Drag Lake provides an abundance of water to explore and enjoy by boat. The cottage itself has a warm, classic character, with wood finishes throughout and a functional layout ready for your personal touches. The large deck is perfectly positioned to take in the water view and enjoy long summer evenings outdoors. Adding tremendous value is the detached 24ft. x 24ft. double-car garage, complete with a large open-stud loft area offering exciting potential for storage, a workshop, studio or future development. Despite its private, natural setting, you're less than 10 minutes from Haliburton, putting shopping, restaurants, schools, services and all the amenities of town conveniently close by. This is the kind of property where cottage traditions begin and memories last for generations.
