By Fraser Abe
Copy link
155 Island, Georgian Bay

ADDRESS: 155 Island

NEIGHBOURHOOD: Private island near Honey Harbour, Georgian Bay

AGENT: Stephanie Anne Newlands and Matthew Alexander Parent, Private Service Realty

PRICE: $1,599,999

THE PLACE: A private island that is just under three acres (the size varies depending on water level), and located 15 minutes from Georgian Bay’s Honey Harbour. The three buildings have a quirky charm, and contain six bedrooms in total. 

BRAGGING RIGHTS: With three living spaces—a three-bedroom cottage, a one-bedroom guesthouse with a kitchen and bathroom and a two-bedroom bunkie—you can invite guests, but still have enough privacy to lounge around all morning in your robe.

BIG SELLING POINT: Inside the three-slip boathouse is a 15-foot boat that the owners are hoping to sell along with the property, so there’s no need to hitch rides or buy a dinghy.

POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: This private island is so off the beaten path that it doesn’t even show up on Google maps. Perfect for a secluded getaway, but difficult to give directions to friends and family.

BY THE NUMBERS: • $1,599,999 • $5026.11 in taxes (2011) • 90-foot dock • 6 bedrooms • 3 buildings • 2 bathrooms • 3-slip boathouse • 1 fireplace
