Discover an exceptional island retreat on beautiful Whale Back Island in Crystal Bay, offering two separate waterfront exposures - a sun-soaked south shore with sandy beach and a scenic northwest shoreline perfect for sunsets. With 320 feet of total frontage and a level 0.85-acre lot, this property delivers rare usability, privacy, and year-round enjoyment. The renovated three season cottage features an inviting open-concept layout combining the living room, kitchen, and sunroom. The kitchen includes a centre island, double sink, and mostly stainless-steel appliances. The living room offers a cozy wood stove and walkout to the deck, while the sunroom provides panoramic lake views and its own walkout. There are 3 comfortable bedrooms, including a primary with direct ground-level access, plus a large 3-piece bath and convenient main-floor laundry. Outdoor living shines here: expansive lakeside decking, a charming gazebo, and a large, level yard ideal for family activities. The south-facing sandy beach offers gentle, kid-friendly entry, while the docks provide ample depth for boating. Enjoy two docks-an older secondary dock and a newer, oversized L-shaped dock with plenty of room for entertaining, swimming, and water sports. Located just an 8-minute boat ride from the marina and approximately 1.5 hours from the GTA, this island getaway is close to nearby towns for shopping, dining, and amenities. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully improved, highly usable island property on sought-after Go Home Lake.
