There's so much to say about this amazing property. Spectacular southern views over the open water of Lake Ontario greet you from this custom-built home on Amherst Island. Built in 2023 on just over an acre of private, landscaped grounds, the 1 storey design puts everything you need on the main floor: a great room with vaulted ceilings, a custom chef's kitchen, and a family room that opens onto a screened porch overlooking farmers' fields. The main floor primary bedroom includes a full ensuite, and the home's accessible design features a roll-in shower, level-within-dwelling access, bath grab bars, and an open floor plan throughout. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a 4-piece bath give family or guests their own space, alongside a large 362 sq ft bonus room - ready to finish as a rec room, family room, studio, or simply left as unfinished storage. A two-storey guest house sits adjacent to the main home, offering its own main floor bedroom, roll-in shower bath, and an open kitchen, dining, and living space warmed by a propane fireplace, with a second-floor bedroom and private balcony overlooking the lake - ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income. The grounds include dry stone walls and metal sculptures crafted by a local artisan blacksmith and a storage barn for equipment and toys. Amherst Island offers a popular sand beach, vibrant welcoming community, quiet roads well suited to cycling, and a landscape that regularly draws nature lovers and photographers, all within three hours of Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa.
