'Serenity' on Otter Lake in Huntsville, Ontario is approximately a 3,000 sq.ft. luxury home situated on 12 acres of private Muskoka property with 1,700 sq.ft of water frontage overlooking quiet Otter Lake to the North and 'Serenity Bay' to the East.  It is a peaceful retreat with supreme privacy, spectacular views, beautiful natural Muskoka waterfront, heating and ventilation systems designed with optimum energy efficiency with upscale accommodations.

This home sits on an exposed plateau of Canadian Shield at the base of a point within meters of the lake on one side and the bay on the other.  Local granite clad the exterior of the building while heavy timbers support and create the roof structure.  The main portion of the building boasts 25’ high floor to ceiling windows, a central two-sided fireplace with hand cut granite stones, stone tile floors throughout, a Great Room surrounding the fireplace, oversized sliding patio doors alongside of the Dining Room, a Chef’s kitchen, complete laundry facilities, 2-piece powder room, and access to the Muskoka Room and Upper Loft Level.

 

The multi-purpose Muskoka Room is a space where people can read, play cards, or watch a movie.  The Upper Loft Level contains a Games Area with a full-sized ping pong table and soft seating, which is adjacent to the Loft Bedroom; complete with a king-size bed, wardrobe units and private 3-piece washroom.

 

The very private master bedroom is on the main level in the East wing and features a king-size bed, high efficiency wood burning stove, a large walk-in closet and oversized 3-piece en-suite facing the wetlands with the water’s edge only meters away.

 

The West wing contains two large bedrooms, with views of the lake and highlights a queen size bed and bunk beds in each room.  A large 4-piece bathroom with vessel sink on a marble vanity is conveniently located for occupants of the West wing to share.
