About this listing

Perfect for snowbirds looking to soak up the season on the shores of St Clair River before heading south, this waterfront retreat delivers cottage living at its finest. This 2-bedroom getaway offers a bright open-concept layout with direct water view, authentic hardwood floors, and an updated kitchen with an island; plenty of room to bake, unwind, and make memories. The main-floor bedroom opens to a partially fenced backyard framed by forest. While the upper floor offers a large bedroom to host family or friends after evenings of stunning sunsets and moonlight chats at the fire pit. Newer windows and a functional 3-piece bath with laundry hookup round out the interior. 2025 updates include a 70 ft dock and a new 27x12 deck with front-row views of boats and cruise ships passing by. A shed at the end of the driveway keeps watertoys and tools organized. Municipal water, propane hot water on demand (Reliance rental, includes annual winterizing), septic, and fast fibre internet keep this quiet hideaway cozy and comfy...not off-grid, just off the noise. Minutes from the Algonac ferry for easy border-crossing visits, and Highbanks Park just around the corner. Watersports from your own dock, stargazing under open skies, and pure enjoyment at the water's edge. Bring your book, your kayak, and your Pinterest ideas to complete this family retreat. Annual carrying costs run low: $325 water/garbage, $700 hydro, $250 septic clean. Leased land /season. Sale includes cottage, deck, dock and improvements only. Walpole Island does not permit short-term rentals or subletting.
