By Fraser Abe

1338 East Bay Road, Torrance

ADDRESS: 1338 East Bay Road, Torrance

NEIGHBOURHOOD: Lake Muskoka

AGENT: Iris and James Gardiner, Chestnut Park Real Estate Limited, Brokerage

PRICE: $1,575,000

THE PLACE: A six-bedroom, five-bathroom cottage on a sheltered bay in Lake Muskoka.

BRAGGING RIGHTS: With two fireplaces, whitewashed wood-panelled walls, a 300-square-foot screened-in room for outside views on rainy days and handsome wood beam ceilings, this cottage feels quintessentially Muskokan.

BIG SELLING POINT: The sun deck above the boathouse, which seems to extend straight into the water (though we wouldn’t recommend jumping off it) has a staggering 1,300 square feet of sun-drenched space.

POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: The downstairs living room is carpeted—great for chilly mornings, but a pain if the kids trek through with sandy feet.

BY THE NUMBERS: • $1,575,000 • 2,700 square feet • 1,300-square-foot deck • 245 feet of shoreline • 6 bedrooms • 5 bathrooms • 3-car garage • 2-slip boathouse • 2 fireplaces
