| Beautiful home & property comprised of 17 acres of diverse terrain along the west end, and south shore of Harewood Lake. Located at the intersection of Godfrey Road and Scannel Road, in the historical coal mining community of Extension.
You enter the property at the flat lands portion of the parcel, running parallel to and immediately off Godfrey Road. It has recently been tilled and ditched, and is ready for additional landscaping or development. The soil consists of an abundance of peat and top soil, making it ideal for gardens, orchards, or playground…for any age.
Buildings on the property consist of; a 16’ x 16’ storage shed (cedar sided, metal roofed, totally enclosed with sliding doors to lake view deck), a 8’ x 12’ pump house (board and baton Siding, metal roof, totally enclosed housing an elaborate, yet easy to maintain water filtering system enabling us to drink the water directly from the tap),
one 1,200 sq ft cottage (cedar sided, metal roof, wrap around, cedar rail deck, utilizing tempered glass panels on the lake side). Below the high, peaked ceilings there are 2 bedrooms, an open concept kitchen, dining and living room areas and a 4 piece bathroom. The loft may serve as an office, den, or third bedroom. Floors are porcelain tile with Berber carpeting in the bedrooms. Both the storage shed (which can easily be converted to a living area) and the cottage boast amazing views of the lake, not too distant pastures, the mountains and the incredible sunsets. The remaining small electrical building houses, as you might expect, power all areas of the property. Ideally, it would be incorporated into an additional home, should you decide to embark upon that venture. There are at least 2 additional building sites on the property, one being adjacent to the cottage and the other being at the top of the high bluff…a location that lends itself to almost 360 degrees of breathtaking views.
The existing septic field and water system are sufficient in size, quality and quantity to support an additional home. And then, there is the absolutely gorgeous lake and the incredibly private beach site, including the coveted Bruce-built wharf. The lake, although small, is very deep and very clear, providing excellent swimming, canoeing, and kayaking, as well as challenging fishing, photo and other visual art opportunities. There are no gas motors permitted on the lake, although small electric motors are welcome. Tall cedars at the beach area provide welcome respite from those stifling hot summer days, while at the same time, ample sunbathing opportunities on a portion of the beach, as well as on the wharf. Driveways, trails and paths have been roughly groomed in various areas on the property, both by a vast array of wildlife, and by gentle human hands and a number of small garden sites have also been developed. The school bus passes the end of the driveway, with all levels of public and post-secondary education, and all amenities and conveniences in town within a 5 - 15-minute commute. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to invest in the romantic serenity of a natural lakeside setting, seemingly in the middle of nowhere, but in reality only minutes from town….truly a slice of heaven in the rough. Data, measurements and floor plans are approximate and should be verified if important.
