A rare opportunity to own a four-season beachfront cottage on iconic Kennisis Lake. Set back from the road with the lake behind the cottage, 5789 Kennisis Lake Road offers a layered sense of privacy that unfolds as you move through the property, creating a calm and intentional connection to the water. Kennisis Lake is one of the largest and most sought-after waterways in the Haliburton Highlands, known for its expansive boating, marina access, and long uninterrupted stretches of open water. This is big lake living with space to breathe and room to slow down. The year-round cottage has been completely rebuilt with long term ease and peace of mind in mind. Gutted to the studs and expanded with an addition, the home features all new septic, drilled well, electrical, insulation, siding, steel roof, landscaping, sauna, and hot tub. Every major system has been replaced. Inside, the cottage is bright and welcoming with private southeast facing lake views throughout. The main level offers three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an open concept kitchen and dining area that naturally becomes the heart of the home, along with a spacious sunroom suited to every season. The lower level features a king bedroom with lake views, walkout access to the hot tub, and gentle steps leading down to the shoreline. Outdoors an expansive upper deck overlooks the lake for relaxed meals and evening sunsets, while a second deck closer to the shoreline offers a quiet place to unwind by the water. A brand new sauna tucked into the trees creates a private spa like escape. The shoreline is exceptional with hard packed sand and a gentle shallow entry. Close to Sir Sam's Ski, golf, trails, and local amenities, this is where lake life feels simple again. Where days feel unhurried. Where the lake becomes part of your everyday rhythm.
