About this home
Make Lake Muskoka part of your everyday life. With spectacular sunsets and four-season comfort, this historic waterfront property in Torrance is ready to welcome its next chapter as a year-round home or cherished cottage retreat.Built in 1892 as the original family homestead, the three-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage has been thoughtfully updated over the years while preserving its unmistakable Muskoka character. Settle in and enjoy it today, with the freedom to add your own touches over time.At the shoreline, a new dock, gradual sandy entry and the charming waterside bunkie, affectionately named “Dreamboat,” set the scene for easy days by the lake. Start your morning with coffee overlooking the water, spend afternoons swimming or exploring by boat, and gather on the dock as the sun sets across Lake Muskoka. When friends stay for the weekend, Dreamboat gives them a memorable retreat of their own.Mainland access and four-season use mean the enjoyment continues well beyond summer. Come for colourful autumn weekends, quiet winter escapes and the first signs of spring-or make this your full-time home and experience every season on the lake.From your dock, explore the connected waters of Lakes Muskoka, Rosseau and Joseph, with waterfront destinations in Port Carling, Bala and Gravenhurst along the way. Nearby, enjoy an evening at the Kee to Bala, unwind at the Beer Spa or take in the stars at Torrance Barrens.For island cottage owners, the property also offers appealing potential as a mainland base, with ample parking, guest accommodation and easy water access.A sandy shoreline, a sunset-facing dock and more than a century of stories. Whether you’re looking for a home on the water or a cottage to bring everyone together, this is a place to settle in, make memories and create your own Muskoka traditions.
