126 Brambel Rd, Shanty Bay, ON L0L 2L0

Nestled at the very end of a quiet, prestigious dead end street, this private woodland retreat on Brambel Road offers the best of both worlds: a serene 2-acre setting with trail access directly across the road to Lake Simcoe. You'll enjoy the perfect balance of privacy, natural beauty, and year-round recreation in one of the area's most desirable enclaves. The home itself spans over 2200 sq. ft. and combines rustic charm with modern touches. With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a bright updated kitchen, hardwood floors, main floor laundry/mudroom, and an updated ensuite, the layout is practical yet full of character. A newly finished 784 sq. ft. lower level (2023) creates extra space for a games room, office, and cozy TV lounge. Outside, the lifestyle continues: relax on the wraparound cedar porch with lake views, host gatherings in the screened-in porch with built-in BBQ kitchen, or retreat to the charming 22x22 century log cabin studio ideal as a guest space, workshop, or creative getaway. For fun, the sports court offers basketball, tetherball, and even oversized chess and checkers. Practical upgrades include a steel roof, newer high-efficiency windows (2022), and a 2-car garage. Whether youre looking to settle in and make it your own or envision building a new dream home in this growing lakeside location, the possibilities are endless. All of this is just 10 minutes to Barrie or Orillia, minutes to skiing, biking, and hiking trails, and just over an hour to Toronto. A rare opportunity to live, play, and relax in a true four-season sanctuary where nature and lifestyle meet.
