Cottage of the Week: $4.5 million for a Georgian Bay mansion masquerading as a cottage

ADDRESS: 1400 Sandy Bay Rd.

NEIGHBOURHOOD: Georgian Bay

AGENT: Allison Parent, Sotheby’s International Realty Canada, Brokerage

PRICE: $4,988,000

BRAGGING RIGHTS: 24 acres of picturesque country property and 600 feet of sandy waterfront. The grounds run from the beach to an essentially private road, and the residence is surrounded by a thick, leafy forest.

BIG SELLING POINT: All the amenities on the dream cottage list: an indoor gym, an indoor saltwater pool, granite and marble countertops, heated tile floors, a library and games room for rainy days and a boathouse with a dock.

POSSIBLE DEAL BREAKER: The office and indoor gym might take away from the classic relaxing-weekend-at-the-cottage experience.
