The Seller was once a masterful gardener, and the property is just waiting from someone to come in and love this private riverfront, parklike gem again. Totally hedged for privacy, this waterfront home or four-season cottage is located on Glen Isle, an island in the Mississippi River near Carleton Place, Ontario, with a history tied to its namesake, Captain Thomas Glendenning. Today, it is a waterfront community that is a short drive from Carleton Place and is a popular spot for outdoor activities like canoeing and fishing with a number of lovely residential homes. This 1100 square foot bungalow features original pine floors in the combined living room and dining rooms, main floor family room and den areas both located with gorgeous south facing river views of Monroe Rapids on Mississippi River. The efficient eat-in kitchen provides access to the main floor laundry/storage room. The primary bedroom has his and her closets and convenient access to the 4 piece bathroom. Another 2 piece bathroom is located off the family room. This area could easily be converted to a second bedroom space. A 16' x 26' detached garage with loft storage provides all kinds of room. The property is gorgeous. The riverside features a natural flat stone patio at water's edge. Excellent canoeing and kayaking right from your own back yard. 2024 saw the installation of a new propane forced air furnace and there is excellent storage in the unfinished basement (which also has access to the back yard!). Immediate occupancy is available. Why not start making your own memories on the Mississippi!
