About this home

The ultimate boater's paradise awaits on Tobermory's coveted Big Tub Harbour with this rare, handcrafted waterfront masterpiece by the renowned Devitt & Uttley Traditional Builders. Seamlessly blending historical charm with modern luxury, the spectacular open-concept layout reimagines a classic lakeside cabin-preserving a touch of the past with an original stone feature wall-into a bright kitchen and living area boasting custom American Cherry cabinetry, exposed framework, and premium new appliances. Expansive windows and sliding glass doors lead to vast decking wrapped in frameless glass balustrades, offering unobstructed views of the crystal-clear waters and your private, 50-foot deep-water dock-perfectly engineered for major vessels and recently home to a 50-foot sailboat. Stairs guide you from the parking area, to the main cottage and from there right down to the dock playground ideal for swimming, kayaking, keeping your jet skis and soaking up the sun, all while sitting just 150 feet from the famous Sweepstakes and City of Grand Rapids shipwrecks. The thoughtfully designed interior balances airy sophistication and warm cottage vibes with horizontal beadboard walls, a vibrant kid-friendly third bedroom with three built-in bunks, and a detached, cozy bunkie for overflow guests. Meanwhile, the stunning new addition elevates your retreat with a 4-piece bathroom, a beautiful secondary bedroom, and a primary suite complete with a vaulted tongue-and-groove pine ceiling, panoramic water views, and a custom site-built walk-in shower. This is a year round property so you can enjoy all the seasons. Since the renovation to the original cabin and the new wing, this cottage has never been occupied and is waiting for you!
