We know that buying a house in Toronto comes with a hefty price tag. But did you know that for roughly the same price as an average Toronto home you could own not one, but two private islands? That’s right, this island house for sale in Thunder Bay could make all of your paradise dreams come true.
Located on the beautiful shores of Lake Superior, the Palette Island listing features a beautiful two-bedroom home with a massive wraparound deck that offers views for days.

You can even get a glimpse of Ontario’s Sleeping Giant from the deck, making it one of the best places we’ve ever seen for sipping morning coffee.
Inside, the home has a spacious open concept and floor-to-ceiling windows so that you can enjoy those panoramic waterfront sights in any weather.
The nearby Kent Island is also included in the sale because why settle for just one island, right?
Between the two properties, you would have five acres of land to call your own.
And all of that for $1,200,000.
Not too bad when you consider a typical Toronto home costs $1,100,000 right now and might not even have a backyard, let alone an island or two.
One highlight of this home that really stands out is the wraparound deck that leads onto a stunning balcony with a built-in hot tub.
There’s also a detached two-car garage on Palette Island with a charming loft area for additional sleeping options.
If you live to wander, then you’ll love exploring the island’s various walking trails.
The home might seem really off-grid, but in reality, you’re only about 30 minutes away from downtown Thunder Bay.
So, just a hop, skip, and a boat ride away from all of the action that the city has to offer.
If you're in the market for a dream home, don't forget to look outside the city limits, there are some real hidden gems out there.
From now on, two islands is the benchmark.
