The Place: A 3,700-square-foot family cottage on popular Honey Harbour. There’s a separate in-law suite over the garage.

Bragging Rights: Burgers and dogs are for amateurs. This cottage’s massive kitchen is stacked with top-of-the-line appliances that call for something a little more refined—or, at the very least, some gourmet condiments.

Big Selling Point: A shallow shore and a sandy beach mean this cottage’s owners don’t have to deal with the typical icy plunge. It’s possible to edge one’s way into the water, bit by bit.

Possible Deal Breaker: Such an elaborately outfitted property (it even has a home theatre) may be overkill for most cottagers, but a buyer with a taste for luxury will find plenty to like.
