211 Meadow Lane Court

Just north of Maberly in Bennett Lake Estates, this 21-acre forested retreat includes its own natural mountain, with sweeping views of Bennett Lake and the mixed, mature forest below. Carefully thinned and tended over the years, the woods feel open yet wild, with over 250 feet of natural shoreline accessible by a short flight of steps. Watch the breeze ripple across the lake, trace the shifting colours of the seasons, and at night, lie back under a sky filled with stars, far from city lights. Located at the very end of Meadow Lane Court, the property offers deep privacy, with no neighbours in sight. The simple one-bedroom, one-bath cabin is finished with cedar harvested from the land and includes power and running water. With basic insulation and a quality woodstove, it's usable year-round-whether as a quiet retreat, future bunkie, or a practical base while you design and build a true four-season home atop the mountain. Several outbuildings add both charm and function, including a garage, woodshed, garden shed, gazebo, and bathhouse. From the high building site, long views follow the length of Bennett Lake, inviting days spent boating, fishing, or swimming from your own shore. The surrounding forest encourages hiking, snowshoeing, and ATV or snowmobile adventures, with the Tay Valley recreational trail just fifteen minutes away. As a resident of Bennett Lake Estates, you have deeded shared access to the community's two private waterfront lots, one with boat launch. Private road with maintenance and snow plowing $450/year. Perth is approximately 25 minutes away and Kanata just over an hour. What begins as a quiet escape may soon feel like the place your days were always meant to begin.
