Just outside of Bayfield sits a cottage that has been part of the same family since the 1970s, built by them and held onto all these years. It is easy to picture how it began, weekends at the beach turning into something more permanent, a place that worked so well they never felt the need to leave. Over time, it has been cared for and updated where it counts, with major improvements like the furnace (2020), AC (2020), windows (2022), siding (2022), and roof (2015 and 2026) already taken care of. It gives you the character of a true cottage with the comfort to enjoy it in every season. Inside, the main floor is anchored by a two storey stone fireplace that rises through the centre of the home. It sets the tone for the open living and dining space where everything flows and everyone stays connected. Whether it is a full house on a summer weekend or a quiet winter escape, this space delivers. The kitchen offers plenty of cupboard space and sits open to the main living area so you are always part of what is going on. A main floor bedroom and 3 piece bathroom add flexibility for guests or day to day living. Upstairs offers two bedrooms, a 2 piece powder room, and a loft style rec room that has always been the extra hangout space, or could be reimagined into more bedrooms. The lot is a big part of the appeal. With no neighbours behind, you get that added sense of space that is getting harder to find. The shared beach access is just a short walk away.Bayfield is a quick drive for groceries, restaurants, and everything else you might need. This is the kind of place that has already proven itself over time. Well built, well maintained, and ready for whatever comes next. (id:24093)
