Property Description
Set on 11 private, treed acres with approximately 132 metres of waterfront, this four-season, 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers space, privacy and beautiful sunset views over Bennett Lake-all just 20 minutes from Perth and approximately one hour from Ottawa. On the main floor, wood ceilings and accents preserve the home's cottage character, while new flooring, updated lighting and glass railings create a bright, contemporary feel. The kitchen features a butcher-block island, granite countertops, tile backsplash, updated cabinetry, and a brand-new 2026 refrigerator and gas range. The adjoining living room has a gas fireplace for cooler evenings, while the spacious sunroom's floor-to-ceiling windows frame the lake and sunset views. A convenient 2-piece bathroom completes this level.Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a peaceful retreat with vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams and a private balcony overlooking the lake and mature treetops. Two additional well-sized bedrooms and a recently updated 4-piece bathroom complete the upper level.The lower level is fully above grade on the lake-facing side, bringing in abundant natural light and providing direct exterior access. It includes a bright fourth bedroom with an egress window and lake-facing outlook, along with a beautifully finished 3-piece bathroom featuring a large glass shower and modern tile-an inviting and private space for family or overnight guests.Outside, two generous decks and a welcoming firepit area provide plenty of room to gather, dine or relax among the trees. At the water, a rocky shoreline gives way to a shallow sand-and-mud lakebed suitable for wading, while the dock provides easy access for swimming, fishing, kayaking and canoeing. With approximately 1,926 sq. ft. of finished living space, substantial acreage and extensive waterfront, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Bennett Lake within easy reach of both Perth and Ottawa.
