At the tip of a small peninsula on Lake Muskoka, surrounded by the dramatic landscape of the northern backcountry, you’ll come upon a cottage that marries classic Muskoka design with a hint of Cape Cod. Listed at $3.299 million, this beautiful property at 2045 Muskoka Rd. 118W / Wyldewood Rd. Unit 30 features four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a series of tiered patios that guide you to a picturesque boathouse at the water’s edge with a one-bedroom apartment on top.

The sun-drenched living room, which features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, a stone fireplace and wraparound views of the lake, is a cheerful space.

The whitewashed interior, with its rustic charm and dazzling window views, offers a nostalgic New England lake house ambiance.

The contemporary kitchen is a pleasant space and provides a full line of sleek amenities, making preparing meals an enjoyable task.

The oak plank floors feature a hand-scraped walnut finish, while the generous wall of windows provides ample sunlight and lovely scenery to dine by.

The primary bedroom offers picturesque lake views and opens onto a charming ensuite bathroom.

The ensuite bathroom, as seen here, features an antique-style clawfoot tub and a modern walk-in shower.

The cottage’s lower level provides equally fantastic views and access to a secondary sundeck ideal for lazy mornings spent with a cup of coffee and a good read.

The primary patio, fit with a chic glass balustrade and mid-century modern outdoor fireplace, is perfectly designed for entertaining. Dine al fresco with friends, or spend a laid-back evening chatting fireside.

Head down to the boathouse to take a spin on the water or enjoy sunbathing on this epic-sized terrace.

Or, descend to the water’s edge and enjoy a refreshing dip in the lake — it’s also a spectacular spot for stargazing the night away.
