This 16 acre island sanctuary offers a superb natural harbour and spectacular 360° views in a quiet, exclusive cottage area south of O'Donnell Point. The property has been under the same ownership for more than a half century the owners having mindfully enhanced it in deference to its natural surroundings. Conscientious stewards, they established a Forest Management Agreement with the province ensuring ongoing management of the forest while receiving a tax abatement. The 16 acres are entirely walkable, with smooth flat rock sloping to the water, areas of open Pre-Cambrian granite shield interspersed with lush groves of mature trees. The low profile buildings clad in wood Board & Batten blend seamlessly into the landscape. The simple structures comprise a Main Cabin with open plan living/dining/kitchen, & small bedroom, and a private Master Cabin connected to the main by breezeway; a large bedroom with full screened porch, a Franklin wood stove, King size bed and 1 pc. Ensuite. A Guest Cabin for 4 is situated in close proximity to the main cabin as is a wood paneled 3-pc. "Wash House" A second Sleeping Cabin overlooking the harbour sleeps 2. A roofed, screened pavilion atop a large observation deck overlooks magnificent sweeping views over whalebacks to the Pine Islands and beyond. The sheltered harbour offers excellent mooring with a new 40' dock and a second dock for launching watercraft. A waterside gazebo close by greets arrivals. The island offers walking trails, superb swimming, kayaking, sailing, excellent bass fishing, even a Horse Shoe Pitch. Comprised of two approx. Equal parcels divided by a narrow isthmus of land there is potential for an application for severance into 2 registered lots, thus allowing expansion of an extended family compound or holding one lot for the future. The property is "Off Grid" powered by propane and a small solar system. Located merely 10-15 min. From King Bay Marina via well marked and relatively protected channel.Show Description MLS® Number40745410
