Affordable cottage located on a quiet and peaceful lake just north of the Village of Westport. This 3-season cottage is located on Crosby Lake's north shore and sits elevated among the trees 100' above the shoreline - a sanctuary among the treetops.

A space for serene weekend getaways, or a retreat tailored for "work-from-the-lake". This property and cottage have been maintained with pride by the original owners and is now ready for a new family to make memories at the lake. The floor plan is bright, open, and unique with the kitchen, dining area and living room all connected with access to a small deck. There is a full 3-pc bathroom and a sun room that is connected to the bunk room. The sunroom and connected bunk area with two bunk beds, seating area, built-in cabinets, and a modern WETT-certified wood stove offer a cozy, historic charm - ideal for a reading nook, a creative studio, or a quiet office. A meandering cedar staircase leads down to a deep, clean shoreline, the perfect launching point for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, or paddleboarding in crystal-clear water. The cottage is serviced by a triple-filtered lake water system, a full septic system, and is accessed off of a private lane. Crosby Lake is a medium sized lake with no public access so that only landowners on the lake enjoy all the lake has to offer. Located just 20 minutes north of Westport for dining, shopping, golf courses and other recreational opportunities. Well located to plan day trips in the Rideau Lakes area or to travel to larger towns such as Perth, Kingston or Ottawa. The cottage is being sold fully furnished and ready for cottage life!
