Welcome to a very rare opportunity to own an extraordinary 8.3 acre waterfront residential property with an extremely impressive 643 feet of frontage on the beautiful Shadow Lake, situated in the highly regarded Kawartha Lakes region. The 4 bedroom cottage built in 1945, is situated in the middle of the property surrounded by a stunning old growth woodland, providing the utmost privacy. Because much of the wooded area is untouched the variety of the flora, plants, flowers shrubs and trees is truly amazing. On the water, is a hugely advantageous 2 bedroom 600 square foot boathouse with a 400 sq ft deck extending out over the water, with a sandy bottomed swimming area and a very convenient boat/float plane ramp.
