Welcome to Hemlock Treehouse, a truly rare log cabin retreat set on almost 8 private wooded acres, surrounded by crown land with no neighbours in sight. A setting that feels worlds away, yet perfectly positioned near Catchacoma Marina (faster to walk than drive), offering effortless access to boating, plus a charming store with essentials, LCBO, and ice cream. Seasonal lake views emerge through the trees in winter. This iconic 6-level home offers 4 bedrooms plus a loft and 2 full baths, blending rustic character with thoughtful updates. The entry welcomes you with a spacious mudroom and full bath ('24), designed for real life at the cabin. Just up, the fully renovated kitchen ('25) is both refined and functional, featuring quartz counters, dovetail cabinetry, pantry, bar, and all new appliances. A screened-in porch off the kitchen offers the perfect spot to relax and take in the peaceful setting - often enjoying the soft hum of hummingbirds. The main living space is striking, with soaring 25+ ft ceilings, a dramatic yet warm family room with gas fireplace, and a dining area surrounded by windows with custom chandelier. Two sets of double doors open to a spacious deck with stunning sunset views over the serene forest. Split-level design continues with a bedroom and 2-pc bath, followed by a spa-like soaker tub retreat ('24). The loft bedroom offers a custom reclaimed wood bed, Juliette balcony, and overlooks the living space below. At the very top, a flexible loft is ideal for fitness, yoga, or creative escape. The walkout lower level adds 3 bedrooms, rec room with wood-burning fireplace ('26), laundry, storage, and dual walkouts. Outside, enjoy a hot tub and fire pit (both '23). Detached garage features in-floor heating, wood fireplace, and finished loft. Circular drive with parking for 20, generator ('22), furnace ('23), updated plumbing('23), UV filtration ('25), plus 1 washer, 2 dryers, stand-up fridge & freezer. Private, distinctive, and unforgettable. (id:2471)
