Skip the 401 gridlock and head just 30 - 40 minutes outside of Guelph or Waterloo to Conestoga Lake, where a lengthy commute is optional but the panoramic water views are absolutely mandatory. Perched on my personal favourite area of the lake, this place claims arguably the single best vantage point on the entire lake, this property offers a massive 1,000-square-foot deck with glass railings that serves as your primary open-air living room for the summer. It comes fully equipped with a steel pergola and a 60,000 BTU fire table, creating an outdoor environment that makes it incredibly easy to forget about your smartphone. Inside, the heavy lifting has already been entirely completed. The main cottage has been stripped down and modernized with new wiring, updated plumbing with an iron removal system, spray foam insulation, new windows, and fresh flooring. It features a bright kitchen fitted with stainless steel appliances, a vaulted ceiling upstairs, and two updated bathrooms. The main floor (and deck) is also thoughtfully designed to be wheelchair accessible. For your overnight guests, the separate bunkie has been fully refreshed with its own new kitchenette, a two-piece bathroom, and a private balcony. If the lake breeze isn't enough to melt away the workweek, you can head over to your private four-person sauna overlooking the water, followed by a crisp dip in the cold plunge pool. Best of all, you can leave your tools in Guelph. The keys to this property come with an entire fleet of toys, including a 20-foot Legend pontoon boat, an 11-foot inflatable dinghy, a John Deere garden tractor, a lockable toy locker, and even a five-year supply of firewood. Operating on a Grand River Conservation Authority lease, this is a multi-recreational playground for boating and sailing without the multi-hour drive. Pack your bags, leave the renovation stress behind, and come see what lakeside living looks like Located on GRCA Leased Land. Year round occupancy is not allowed.
