Location, location! Rarely offered on the highly sought-after south shore of Big Rideau Lake, this property presents an exceptional opportunity to own in a prime waterfront setting just minutes from Rideau Ferry. Enjoy expansive, unobstructed lake views and breathtaking sunsets from this desirable south-facing lot.Known as "Sunset Lodge," the property includes a 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage and a boathouse at the water's edge. Both structures require TLC, but offer a solid starting point for renovation or redevelopment. The true value lies in the beautiful lot, clean shoreline, and the incredible potential to create a personalized waterfront retreat in one of the Rideau's most desirable locations.The cottage features a functional and inviting layout with an enclosed porch, providing additional space for sleeping, relaxing, or entertaining guests. The boathouse offers bonus accommodation options-ideal for visitors, a private hangout, or a peaceful lakeside escape just steps from the water.A solid concrete seawall enhances the shoreline, offering protection from erosion while providing a clean and practical waterfront for swimming, docking, and boating. The property's orientation ensures full sun exposure throughout the day, making it perfect for outdoor enjoyment and evening sunsets by the lake.Hydro service is available at the road; reconnection to the cottage will be the responsibility of the Buyer (previous line damaged by tree). Water was lake-fed when hydro was connected. New septic system installed in 2020 (unused). Cottage shingles replaced in 2014 and boathouse shingles in 2015. Road fee is $200 for 2025.Whether you're looking to renovate, rebuild, or invest, this is a rare chance to secure a premium waterfront property and bring your vision to life on Big Rideau Lake.
