    What's special

    Opportunity knocks at 21 Lake Caroline Drive, a 2.27-acre parcel brimming with possibility in the heart of Ruther Glen. Boasting an impressive 595 feet of road frontage along US Route 1, this rare offering pairs exceptional visibility with a picturesque view of Lake Caroline—a combination that's hard to come by. A slice of local history sits on the land: an existing 1,200-square-foot building that once operated as the area's beloved bait and tackle shop when the lake first opened its waters back in 1968. Whether you envision restoring the structure or starting fresh, the canvas is yours to shape. Practical groundwork has already been laid. Soil testing conducted in 2006 supports a three-bedroom perk at the site of the current building, and there may be an existing drainfield in place. Note that the water company holds a small right-of-way containing an abandoned well that formerly served the shop. Location amplifies the appeal. Beaver Park sits just moments away, offering nearby green space and recreation, while everyday conveniences—including a grocery stop along Ladysmith Road—are within easy reach. The lakeside setting delivers natural beauty alongside genuine commercial and residential potential. Whether you're an investor eyeing high-traffic frontage or a dreamer ready to build something memorable, this property invites vision and ambition alike. Bring your plans and imagination to this versatile Ruther Glen gem—true potential awaits along the shores of Lake Caroline.
