Welcome home to your private peninsula paradise on beautiful Bennett Lake! Custom-built in 2005, this absolute gem serves up nearly 200' of pristine, fully owned southern exposure shoreline-meaning zero public access, total privacy, and completely unobstructed, panoramic water views from almost every window. From the moment you step inside, you will instantly feel the cozy, sun-drenched, and deeply welcoming vibe. The main level absolutely shines with stunning cherry hardwood floors, a bright kitchen, and ceiling fans keeping the summer breeze flowing. Cozy up by the propane fireplace in the family room on crisp fall evenings, or enjoy the ultimate indoor-outdoor flow with a full walkout basement leading straight to your lakeside oasis.Step out onto your massive deck (completely updated in June 2024 with modern glass and aluminum rails) to host summer barbecues with your built-in Vermont Castings propane BBQ connected straight to the house. Whether you want to lounge under the premium louvered pergola (2026), unwind in your luxurious 5-person La-Z-Boy Refresh hot tub, or sip your morning coffee in the beautifully screened cedar gazebo, this property was truly built for making family memories. Have guests staying over? They will fall in love with the adorable 99 sq ft "Bunkie Life" summer cabin nestled beautifully on the grounds! For the hobbyist, the 20'x10' wood storage shed features a durable metal roof and is perfectly set up as a workshop or your very own maple sap boil house. Mechanically, this home is turn-key: a new roof (2019), owned hot water tank (2018), a forced-air propane furnace, and a pristine septic system that passed inspection in May 2025 (pumped June 2025). It has a double garage with a new 2025 auto opener. Work from home with blazing-fast Starlink Wi-Fi! This spectacular lakeside retreat is just a scenic 40-minute drive to Carleton Place. Come take a look and fall in love! (id:25961)
