Tucked away on peaceful Boyne Lake, this off-grid cottage offers a private waterfront setting surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty. Accessed by a private tree-lined road, the property features approximately 1.66 acres with 136 feet of sandy shoreline and desirable southern exposure for all-day sun.

Vaulted ceilings and large windows bring in natural light and showcase the lake views, while the wood stove adds warmth and comfort on cooler evenings. The renovated kitchen offers ample storage, a propane stove, electric refrigerator, and plenty of space for dining and gathering with family and friends. Two spacious bedrooms and a 2-piece bathroom complete the interior. Step out from the living area onto the lakeside deck, perfect for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or evenings around the fire overlooking the lake. The property is powered by solar with a backup generator, offering modern convenience while maintaining the peaceful experience of off-grid cottage living. A great opportunity to enjoy privacy, nature, and waterfront living in a quiet Haliburton setting.
