About this home

It doesn't get any sweeter than this! Artists in residence have turned this cottage into a delightful year-round home with many updates. You'll enjoy fishing from the 20 ft dock that's just 20 min to Lake Ontario by boat. Beautiful in all seasons w/ many flowering perennials, shrubs & evergreens. The space in the old-fashioned cupboards will amaze you. Cozy up to the woodburning fireplace on chilly evenings & relish in the views of wildlife on the creek from the enclosed side porch. Many extras. You'll love this place whether you choose to live here year-round or in your favorite season!
