ADDRESS : 1327 Peninsula Road, Port Carling
REGION : Lake Muskoka
AGENT : Richard Scully , Harvey Kalles Real Estate Ltd., Brokerage, Port Carling.
PRICE : $3,895,000
THE PLACE : This island cottage is more luxury chalet than quaint getaway. The property includes a main residence with a loft overlooking the living room, a boathouse with a rooftop deck and a separate bunkhouse for visiting guests, all of which blend distinctly contemporary features—stainless steel kitchen appliances, marble countertops, even a heated granite floor in the Muskoka room—and the traditional cottage appeal.
BRAGGING RIGHTS : The perfect party dock. Equipped with a built-in bar and barbecue, it’s a space made to entertain.
BIG SELLING POINT : Um, you’ll own your own island—3,222 square feet of property and another 1,200 square feet of water frontage that’s all yours.
POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER : With so much deck space, a Muskoka chair addiction is almost inevitable.

• $12,299 in property taxes
• 3,222 square feet
• 4 bedrooms
• 3 bathrooms
