Welcome to your private waterfront retreat on beautiful Buck Lake. This exceptional 22-acre property features over 1300 feet of shoreline, stunning south-facing views, and remarkable privacy in a quiet, long sheltered bay. Buck Lake is a deep trout lake known for its beautiful scenery, Canadian Shield landscape, and excellent fishing opportunities.

Enjoy the spectacular lake views from two lake-facing sunrooms, perfect for relaxing with a good book and taking in the natural surroundings. One sunroom is a large, newer addition, while the second is combined with the laundry area. A large deck overlooks Buck Lake and is ideal for morning coffee, family gatherings, and enjoying the southern exposure. An oversized detached single-car garage provides excellent storage for vehicles and cottage equipment. A gentle pathway leads to the waterfront for easy access to swimming, boating, and fishing. The expansive acreage offers a beautiful mix of mature trees, Canadian Shield rock outcroppings, and a wetland habitat supporting local wildlife. The Rideau Trail follows the ridge above the shoreline, adding a unique recreational feature and direct access to one of Ontario's premier hiking trails. Whether you are looking for a private family cottage or a rare waterfront property with extensive shoreline, acreage, natural beauty, and exceptional privacy, this Buck Lake retreat is a rare opportunity to own a remarkable property in one of the area's most desirable waterfront settings.
