About This Property

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Legacy Estate on Spruce & Drag Lakes Opportunities like this are generational. Tucked into the heart of Haliburton and just a quick 15-minute drive to town, The Waters Edge is a completely private 11-plus acre sanctuary boasting over 500 feet of pristine shoreline with panoramic West, North, and South exposures. The heaviest lifting on this massive lot has already been masterfully completed, making it a highly rare, turn-key compound with incredible infrastructure already in place. Built directly over the water in 1969-1970 by renowned Toronto Architect John King this fascinating two-storey structure is a true marvel. It underwent an extensive, top-to-bottom renovation in 2023, yielding a fully modernized waterfront retreat. Comes fully furnished with all-new appliances, a WETT-certified Napoleon woodstove, and an included Napoleon BBQ. Over 1,000 square feet of expansive wraparound decking, upgraded in 2023 with modern glass railings, plus a massive waterfront dock perfect for soaking up the sun or launching water adventures. Upgraded 200AMP electrical service with a new breaker box, a new water pump, and a new water heater. Year-round access is guaranteed via a road association for just $600/year. Approximately 300 feet from the main cottage, a brand new secondary site has been painstakingly excavated into three beautiful, level pads set 90 feet back from a quiet little bay on Spruce Lake. A newly built 370 sq. ft. Haliburton Forest and Wildlife Reserve Eco Log cabin featuring a 100 sq. ft. loft. (Finishing touches currently underway include a 3-section red tin roof and the final two doors) The cabin features roughed-in utility rooms, a kitchen, and a 3-piece bathroom. Power is active at the site, and the waterline to the lake has already been trenched and buried deep. Brand New (2025) 8-person septic system was installed in 2025 to seamlessly service both buildings, complete with a new septic pump-up unit located right at the cabin site.
