Set behind mature trees along 170 feet of Georgian Bay shoreline, 285 Balmy Beach Road was designed around the water. Nearly every principal room faces the bay, with panoramic sunrise views woven throughout the home. Completely reimagined through thoughtful recent updates, this waterfront estate blends modern design with the natural beauty and privacy of Balmy Beach. Positioned on nearly an acre just minutes from Owen Sound, golf courses, marinas, and the yacht club, the property offers a rare balance of seclusion and convenience. Inside, warm oak flooring, custom millwork, and expansive windows frame panoramic water views throughout the home. The redesigned kitchen is anchored by oversized porcelain countertops, integrated wood detailing, and an oversized island designed for gathering. Open-concept living and dining spaces flow effortlessly toward the shoreline, while the suspended fireplace and sunken lounge create a striking architectural focal point. Offering 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, the layout was designed for both entertaining and everyday living. The walkout lower level creates a fully self-contained guest retreat complete with its own kitchenette, laundry, oversized windows, stone flooring, and direct access to the waterfront grounds, ideal for extended family, guests, or luxury rental flexibility. Outside, a wraparound waterfront deck overlooks the bay, complete with glass railings, a recessed hot tub, multiple seating areas, and natural stone walkways. A separate 400+ sq ft dome pavilion complete with its own sound system and independent heating and cooling offers flexibility as a yoga studio, wellness retreat, meditation space, or creative escape. Its combination of privacy, waterfront setting, and resort-style amenities has also made it a sought-after destination for luxury short-term stays. This is a rare opportunity to own a modern Georgian Bay waterfront property in one of the area's most sought-after shoreline communities.
