Welcome to this charming 2-storey waterfront home set on an expansive 9.45-acre treed lot along the Rideau River in Montague Township, offering privacy, natural beauty, and year-round living, just 5 minutes from the picturesque village of Merrickville. Built in 1919, this character-filled home features a bright main level with a welcoming foyer, functional kitchen with ample cabinetry, dining area, and a spacious living room anchored by a cozy wood stove. A stunning screened in porch stretches across the rear of the home, providing panoramic views of the river and surrounding landscape, the perfect place to relax and unwind. The second level offers 3 bedrooms including a generous primary retreat, along with a full bathroom featuring tub/shower, vanity, and toilet. Custom-made built-in cupboards in the primary bedroom and in one of the secondary bedrooms are very useful. The walk-out lower level remains unfinished and offers excellent potential for additional living space, along with laundry and abundant storage. This property includes a detached two-car garage with a large loft above, offering incredible versatility for a future living space, bunkie, or work-from-home studio, along with ample parking and multiple outbuildings. Enjoy direct waterfront access with natural shoreline, ideal for fishing, kayaking, and taking in the peaceful surroundings. The property is located within The Rideau Migratory Bird Sanctuary. Located on a paved road with easy access to nearby amenities, this unique property offers a rare opportunity to own a private riverfront retreat just outside the city. A boat can be kept at the dock to enjoy in the summers as the water depth allows for a boat. Septic is 2004. 24 hrs irrevocable on all offers. (id:25961)
