Nestled in the peaceful Ryde community and just steps from beautiful Bass Lake Park, 1657 Housey's Rapids Road is a property bursting with potential. Currently operating as a charming 3 season home, this property offers the opportunity to convert into a year round residence to suit your lifestyle and needs. Set on a nicely sized lot with a drilled well and full septic system already in place, the groundwork is here to create something truly special. There was also an additional part of the building originally that has since been removed, offering an excellent opportunity to potentially rebuild within that footprint whether you envision additional living space, a screened in porch, or a garage and storage area. Inside, you'll find a bright open concept layout featuring 3 well sized bedrooms, an updated bathroom, and laundry already in place for added convenience. Everything is located on one floor, making this home ideal for any stage of life. A large wood stove heats the home beautifully, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the cooler months. The home is filled with rustic charm, showcasing lovely pine tongue and groove walls and ceilings along with wide plank rustic wood flooring throughout. Just steps away, Bass Lake Park features a beautiful sandy beach on Bass Lake, perfect for picnics, launching your paddle board or kayak, or taking the family for a swim on a warm summer day. Located on a year round municipally maintained road and on the school bus route, this property offers both convenience and accessibility in a quiet rural setting. Whether you're looking for an affordable entry into the Muskoka market, a peaceful weekend retreat, or a property with future development potential, this is an exciting opportunity just a short drive to town amenities.
