Tucked away among the trees in Chalet Hamlet and near the end of the road, this peaceful cottage offers privacy, simplicity and over three acres of land backing onto a conservation area near Armstrong Lake. Access to the beach is just a short walk away, where you can enjoy swimming, kayaking, boating and countless days by the water. The cottage has electricity and a cozy wood stove for heat. Inside, you’ll find one bedroom, a combined kitchen and living area, and a practical mudroom. A separate room is already in place for a future bathroom and currently contains a composting toilet. Along the side of the cottage, a private outdoor shower faces the surrounding forest—an ideal way to embrace cottage living. A 1,000-litre water cistern and hot-water tank are located in the basement. The property also includes a delightful 10' x 14' bunkie, offering extra sleeping space for children or guests. At the beginning of the driveway, a 10' x 11' outbuilding in great condition provides convenient storage for ATVs, kayaks and other recreational equipment, while a separate woodshed keeps your firewood protected and close at hand. Chalet Hamlet offers a welcoming sense of community, with regular gatherings and events for its members. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the fantastic ATV trails and the many surrounding areas enjoyed by hunters. An NSLC outlet, convenience store and gas station are only a few kilometres away, while Ski Martock is approximately 15 minutes from the property while the town of Windsor is roughly 20 minutes from you. With year-round recreational activities nearby and additional accommodations already on-site, this cottage offers wonderful potential as a personal getaway or short-term rental opportunity. Whether you’re seeking a quiet escape, a family gathering place or an investment surrounded by nature, this inviting property is ready to be enjoyed.
