About the Listing

Imagine owning an entire island on Lake Muskoka, and having the freedom to create what comes next. Cedar Island is an extraordinary approx. 3.5 acre private island sanctuary, beautifully positioned within the prestigious West Beaumaris corridor and surrounded by the iconic landmarks of Old Woman and Stonewall Islands. Family held for over 130 years, this storied property presents a rare opportunity to take an exceptional natural setting and reimagine it as a completely bespoke Muskoka estate. The island's remarkable topography offers a collection of spectacular building sites amongst towering pine and hardwood forests, granite outcroppings and sandy shoreline. Sheltered coves invite morning swims, while rocky points capture sweeping lake vistas and dramatic sunset skies. With panoramic water views and exposures stretching from sunrise to sunset, Cedar Island offers an extraordinary foundation for a sophisticated new Lakehouse and private family compound. Three existing summer cottages offer a connection to the island's past, while the next owner has the opportunity to thoughtfully craft its future. Whether envisioned as a minimalist architectural retreat, an expansive multi-generational lake house or an intimate private sanctuary, there is an unparalleled sense of freedom that comes with owning the entire island. An opportunity for a Walker's Point slip offers easy mainland access while still being 2 hours from North Toronto. Rarely does Lake Muskoka present the opportunity to acquire an entire island with this much privacy, provenance and potential. Cedar Island is your blank canvas, and the chance to build something truly extraordinary. (id:35507)
