According to Steven Sarasin, the property's real estate agent, the all-season cottage offers future homeowners a chance to invest in this rare getaway.

Amongst the cottage's most rustic amenities are its wood-burning fireplace and guest cabin. So, you can entertain your friends and family all year long. 

This spot is also the ideal place for privacy. The home is only accessible by water taxi, so you don't have to worry about unwanted visitors.

Another appealing aspect of the cottage is its proximity to Toronto.
