Welcome to the Lake! Have you ever dreamed of living in a beach house? This stunning custom-built (2022) waterfront home on Mississippi Lake blends beautiful design, thoughtful function and an ideal location, just 5 minutes from Carleton Place and 20 minutes from Kanata. A welcoming foyer features chevron-patterned slate tile, built-in cabinetry and seating. Nearby is a laundry area with dog-washing station, full bath with walk-in rain shower and a large, sunny main-floor primary bedroom that could also serve as an office or study. Radiant in-floor heating adds comfort throughout the main and walkout lower levels. The breathtaking great room has soaring ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace and a chef's kitchen with farmhouse sink, pantry, quartz counters, custom cabinetry, ZLINE 6-burner gas range with grill and generous island with wine rack. Oversized patio doors open to a pergola-covered deck for entertaining and sunset views. A striking glass-enclosed floating staircase leads to a bright loft with cathedral ceilings, lake views and 2-piece bath, ideal for a bedroom, studio or retreat. The walkout lower-level features heated polished concrete floors, a covered lounge, perennial gardens and a shallow, hard-packed sandy shoreline with a 30-foot dock. Enjoy swimming and boating in summer; skating, skiing and snowmobiling in winter. Gather at the waterfront campfire, relax in the outdoor sauna, plunge into the lake and unwind in the spa-like steam/rain shower. Two generous bedrooms and a family room with stone-backed propane fireplace and bar with fridge, sink, island and wine rack complete this level. The $300 annual private-road fee covers garbage/recycling pickup, snow removal and road maintenance, plus access to a waterfront park co-owned by all homeowners.
