Set across 3.9 acres of land, this estate is a masterclass in "quiet luxury"-a place where grand timber-frame architecture feels remarkably intimate and welcoming. With 373 feet of private, clear shoreline and an exclusive position within a neighborhood of high-end homes, this property offers a level of seclusion that is truly hard to find. The home's design is a thoughtful tribute to the ever-changing views of the lake and the vibrant Haliburton landscape. Inside, the meticulously crafted timber framing creates a striking silhouette against the backdrop of soaring ceilings and large windows that invite the outside in. Sunlight pours into the open-concept living spaces, highlighting high-end finishes that are as durable as they are beautiful. The kitchen, centered around a sprawling social island, flows naturally into the great room, making it the perfect heart for family gatherings. For those who live for summer evenings, the screened-in room with a stone fireplace provides a sophisticated sanctuary to enjoy the lake views in total comfort. With 5 generous bedrooms, 4 full, spa-like bathrooms, and a finished walk-out basement, there is an effortless balance of space for hosting or tucked-away corners for quiet solitude. Adding to the estate's versatility is a beautiful loft apartment, offering a private, self-contained haven that is perfect for extended family, a nanny suite, or an inspiring remote workspace. The home's south exposure ensures the dock is bathed in sun from morning to dusk, while professional stone landscaping creates a graceful, easy path down to the water's edge. Beyond the property boundaries, owners enjoy exclusive access to 1,200 acres of shared private forest complete with a network of managed trails for hiking, snowshoeing, and exploring the wilderness. This estate combines the beauty of the Highlands with the sophisticated warmth of a custom-built retreat (id:27476)
