Looking for a move-in ready cottage to enjoy this summer? Just outside of Westport, at the end of a private road, there is a furnished cottage, surrounded by mature trees and steps away from the edge of Sand Lake. In the morning you can sip your coffee on the lakeside deck and, if you're lucky, you may see a blue heron fly-by or the osprey catching his breakfast. In the cottage, there are two bedrooms, a living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom and two lofts. The two bedrooms are connected by French Doors and a curtain to allow privacy when the guest room is in use or natural light to flow through the length of the cottage when the doors are open. The cottage water supply comes from the lake and passes through a filter system and UV system. There is a propane stove to cozy up the cottage in the cool days of October. Up on the hill there are two winterized bunkies - each 280 square feet in size. One bunkie contains a kitchenette and a three-piece bathroom. Water supply comes from a drilled well that includes a heated line to prevent winter freezing. The other bunkie is perfect for resting, reading, listening to music or studying. (Internet is available there.) Both bunkies are heated with thermostat-controlled propane stoves. There is year-round access to the property for winter stays thanks to a neighbourhood agreement for snow ploughing. This property provides the beauty of privacy and a quiet connection to nature combined with easy access to Westport amenities. Beautiful Sand Lake is perfect for canoeing, kayaking, fishing and swimming... and the sunsets are absolutely amazing! Come have a look! Fiber Internet recently installed.
