Escape to your lakeside sanctuary with this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom four-season 2 storey cottage on Allen Lake, where a heavily treed lot provides complete seclusion and breathtaking panoramic views. Sophisticated, family-friendly, and flooded with natural light! This open-concept home features a bright living/dining area and a spacious kitchen with an island and a cozy propane stove. Plus, enjoy extra living space on the lower level, complete with a large bedroom and a private TV room. Seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living across two cottage decks, the property boasts a wrap-around upper deck with glass railings that enjoys morning to afternoon sun, and a walk-out lower deck that keeps you perfectly sheltered from the sun. Down at the beautiful rocky shoreline, you'll find 2 private docks, a handy storage shed, a firepit, a low-maintenance rock garden, and a peaceful sitting deck at the water's edge. The lake remains a quiet haven-large enough for water skiing and excellent fishing, yet calm and safe enough for peaceful kayaking and canoeing. Complete with minimal-effort grounds, wonderful quiet neighbors, and a spacious driveway that accommodates up to four vehicles, this cottage is the perfect turnkey retreat for generating a lifetime of family memories. Enjoy the true four-season advantage with direct access to winter activities like cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, all while taking advantage of exclusive access to Harcourt Park's 7,000 acres of protected wilderness, 50 kilometers of shared trails, and a convenient community marina. Plus, complete peace of mind is built right in, as the Harcourt fees cover road maintenance, snow plowing, and full access to the community center, sports facilities, and recreational programming.
