Welcome to 875 Corktown Road-a gated waterfront retreat in historic Merrickville offering exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and development potential! Set on 9.14 acres across two severed lots, this property provides flexibility for future severance, additional dwelling options, or a family compound. Tucked behind a private entrance and surrounded by mature trees, the setting is serene and secluded. The beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow features an attached double-car garage and sits along the stunning Rideau River. With approximately 290 feet of shoreline, it includes a private dock ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, or relaxing within the Rideau bird sanctuary.

Vaulted ceilings, travertine marble, and softwood flooring create an airy atmosphere with seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen is designed for gathering with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, pine cabinetry, a large island, and cozy fireplace. A sunroom off the kitchen offers a peaceful year-round retreat immersed in nature. The primary suite features serene water views, while a full bath and dedicated office overlooking the pond complete this wing. On the opposite side, two additional bedrooms and a full bath provide privacy for family or guests, including one bedroom with patio doors to a water-view deck, ideal for in-law or multi-generational living. The grounds are a highlight with landscaped gardens, perennial beds, greenhouse, pond with waterfall and fountain, and solar panels.
