A private waterfront retreat with the warmth and character of an authentic Pan-Abode cedar log home, set on the tranquil shores of Oxbow Lake in the Township of Lake of Bays. Just 30 minutes from Huntsville, this four-season property offers a peaceful rural setting without sacrificing convenient access to shopping, dining and everyday essentials. Known locally as "Fatty's Lake," Oxbow Lake spans approximately 170 hectares, with clear, deep water, rocky shorelines, sandy shallows and excellent fishing. The home's east-facing exposure captures beautiful sunrises over calm, sheltered water, while afternoon sun fills the wraparound deck. Inside, rich cedar walls, vaulted ceilings, exposed timber beams and a wood-burning stove create the inviting atmosphere of a classic Muskoka retreat. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout includes a lake-facing kitchen with ample storage and a dishwasher, a primary ensuite with a soaker tub, and a bright three-season sunroom that opens directly onto the deck. At the shoreline, a private dock provides effortless access to the lake. An electrical serviced waterfront bunkie with a screened porch offers additional space for guests, children or quiet afternoons by the water. Thoughtfully equipped for year-round enjoyment, the property also features propane forced-air heating, a year-round lake water intake with UV treatment, sump pump, an attached single-car garage connected by a breezeway, two storage sheds and an outdoor workbench. Whether envisioned as a weekend escape from the city or a full-time home immersed in nature, this is an opportunity to experience the privacy and simplicity of lakeside living-within easy reach of Huntsville and the best of Muskoka.
