This inviting family home in the sought-after Big Bay Point community offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and future potential-just steps from the shores of Lake Simcoe. Set on a large, tree-lined lot, the property provides a peaceful setting ideal for both everyday living and weekend escapes, only minutes from Friday Harbour Resort and a short drive to Barrie's shops, dining, and amenities. Designed with families and hobbyists in mind, the home features a bright open-concept kitchen and living area, three generously sized bedrooms including a primary with a 3-piece ensuite and walk-in closet, and a full main floor bathroom. The full-sized basement adds exceptional versatility, with a partially finished layout that includes a large stone gas fireplace, additional bathroom space, and framing already in place, offering an easy path to creating additional living quarters. A standout feature is the ample spaced workshop or hobby area, along with abundant storage for seasonal toys such as Sea-Doos, a boat, golf cart, or parasailing equipment, perfect for those who want to fully enjoy the nearby lake lifestyle. This property also presents outstanding custom design potential with minimal renovation required. Included with the home are professionally prepared building drawings for a future master retreat addition designed to capture stunning lake views. In addition, over $20,000 in extras are already on site, including a full basement kitchen with island and integrated appliances, as well as a complete bathroom package ready for installation. With a newer roof (2023) and endless possibilities to personalize, this is a rare opportunity to create your ideal family home or year-round retreat in a highly desirable lakeside community.
