About this property
Offered for the first time since its construction in the 1970s, this remarkable Lake of Bays property presents a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a truly special waterfront setting. 'Jack Pines' is custom built by its original owners and cherished by the same family for generations, the home reflects a timeless appreciation for craftsmanship, featuring authentic Quebec log construction, beautiful wood windows, and a warm, welcoming character that is increasingly difficult to find. Set on approximately 1.6 acres with an impressive 200 feet of shoreline in Haystack Bay, the property enjoys exceptional privacy, framed by mature trees and breathtaking open-water views. A gentle slope leads to the waterfront, while a spacious covered porch provides the perfect place to relax and take in the ever-changing beauty of the lake. The home offers a thoughtful and functional layout with three bedrooms and a full bath on the upper level, along with a charming sitting area that provides a quiet retreat. The principal level features comfortable gathering spaces, a combined powder room and laundry area, and abundant windows that invite the natural surroundings indoors. An unfinished lower level offers additional storage and future potential. Complementing the property is a detached garage and workshop with an attached covered storage area, ideal for boats, equipment, and all the essentials of lakeside living. Whether preserved and enjoyed as a treasured family cottage or envisioned as the site for a future waterfront retreat, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of history, privacy, and one of Lake of Bays' most sought-after assets: an outstanding piece of shoreline in a truly spectacular setting.
