299 Albion Drive, Middlefield, Canada
Unplug, unwind and relax! It is hard to imagine a more perfect spot for getting away from it all. The lakefront cottage at 299 Albion Drive encapsulates a complete immersion into nature. It is not often that property becomes available in the quiet and tranquil setting of Nature Life Estates, and so the owners took a very thoughtful view when approaching this 2007-08 build in such a perfect setting...on one of the most sought-after lakes on the South Shore. The design takes one back in time; providing a refreshing off-the-grid experience...a central great room providing open space to gather around the wood stove and take-in the 11 foot + ceiling. A nice sized bedroom and bathroom, each with sliding barn doors, complete the floor plan. The bathroom features a composting toilet, a sink and claw-foot tub (not currently connected to plumbing). The large covered veranda will be a frequent gathering place, giving shade on hot lazy summer days, providing cover during a rain shower, and extending the living space for evening conversations & entertaining. All will enjoy the outside shower stall that comes with a portable water heater. The community is a mixture of seasonal and full-time residents. For those seeking a year-round home or cottage, the walls are fully insulated, access to power poles is close, the road is plowed in winter, and the lot was approved for a septic system when purchased. The metal roof was added in 2024. Propane-powered stove and refrigerator remain, as do the furniture and all contents (with the exception of owners personal items). There is also a shed for extra storage. The village of Greenfield, and all amenities, is only 10 minutes away, with Liverpool (20 min.) and Bridgewater (40 min.) both close by. (id:63033)
