Incredible Opportunity: Water-Sport Business, Residence & 6+ Acres on Tay River in Historic Perth, ON. Step into a one-of-a-kind lifestyle and business opportunity wrapping the heart of charming Perth, Eastern Ontario's most beloved heritage town. This unique package is set up for a seasonal water-sport business, has a spacious century home with income potential, and 6+ picturesque, treed acres boasting over 1500 feet of shoreline along the scenic Tay River. The previous business operated from May to September and taps into the booming popularity of water recreation. Visitors flock to rent kayaks, canoes, and Corcls, enjoy mini-golf and go-karts, or enroll their children in the popular summer day camp. A rustic log cabin serves as the hub for rentals, giftware, and apparel sales, while a large two-story outbuilding offers ample space for storage or future development. The beautifully treed waterfront, complete with majestic willows and three private docks, is the perfect setting for expansion! Consider hosting weddings, events, festivals, or creating a full waterfront retreat experience. The property includes a large, character-filled century home currently configured as two rental units: a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath front unit and a 1-bedroom, 2-bath rear unit. Whether you're looking to live on-site, generate rental income, or launch a charming Airbnb, the options are endless. This is more than a business - its a lifestyle. Enjoy tranquil waterfront living with all the conveniences of being in town, and limitless potential for growth.
