As an active buyer myself, there are always a few things that are non-negotiables for me. This home has them all! Location, resale, privacy, and big-ticket upgrades already taken care of by someone other than me! Locals know what a special spot this is. Generations before us have nurtured this quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood. And as an extra bonus- Minutes to schools, recreation, and everyday shopping. Now let's get to the good part. Step inside this classic backsplit and discover extensive upgrades completed over the past five years. "Pride of ownership" isn't something they say lightly around here-and we thank the owners for it! New: windows, doors, roof, flooring, lighting, appliances, air conditioning, and more mean you can enjoy your home instead of staring at it and planning your next renovation. As a Muskoka resident, what especially appeals to me is the ease of being outside here. All-day sunshine fills the yard and filters into the home. Let's admit it, that does wonders for us Canadians who don't exactly have Florida weather year round! Backing onto a beautiful greenbelt, there's room for your favourite people and pets to play or connect with the trails to burn off some extra-extra energy (or is that just me talking as a mom?) Add thoughtful landscaping and a saltwater pool, and you won't be wondering if the grass is greener on the other side. Ready to end on a high note? There's a double garage, separate attached workshop, recreational-vehicle friendly driveway, and a five-entry mudroom (I'm convinced this should be standard in every home now that I've seen it). Now you have a home that checks all the boxes! But don't take this veteran agent's word for it-come see it, soak it in- you may just yet, plan to settle down.
