A perfect lakeside escape-ready to enjoy on day one. This three-bedroom, three-season cottage rests on approximately one acre with direct Buck Lake waterfront, quietly set below Hidden Valley Road for privacy and above the shoreline for tranquil views. Arrive via a dual-entrance loop laneway with abundant parking. Ownership is easy thanks to thoughtful upgrades: steel roofs on the cottage, shed, and boathouse (2016); shake-style dark brown vinyl siding (2016); new doors and screens (2016); new windows and screens with cordless interior shades (2016-2017); seamless eaves with leaf guards, new soffits/fascia, and fresh skirting (2016). An upgraded electrical panel with power to the boathouse and shed (2008) supports modern needs, while a Drolet wood stove with WETT-installed chimney, tile, and heat shield (2004) anchors cozy evenings. Outdoor living shines: a Trex main deck (2013) steps down to a Trex composite lower landing with Trex stairs to shore (2022). At the water's edge, enjoy a private boathouse with inner side landings and sand on both sides, plus two docks-20' and 42'-with the long dock perfect for swimming and sunset lounging. A rock fire pit in the wood lot sets the stage for starlit nights. Practical perks include a 2,000-gallon (9,000 L) holding tank (2011), a new water pump (2017), strong cellular service, and a utility shed (2003). Excellent neighbours and a quiet setting enhance the retreat feel. Offered with most contents for ready occupancy.
