701 DAVERN LANE, Tay Valley
Offered for the first time in over 50 years, this cherished family cottage is more than a summer home; it is a place where life slows down, families reconnect and memories are made. Lovingly cared for through the decades, it now awaits new owners to become its next stewards and begin a lifetime of traditions on beautiful Davern Lake. Thoughtfully cared for with low-maintenance vinyl siding and a durable steel roof, this three-season cottage features three bedrooms, one bathroom plus an outdoor privy, a full septic system, lake intake water, a fully equipped kitchen, laundry/storage room, and a welcoming living space warmed by a wood stove for those crisp spring and fall weekends. Skylights fill the cottage with natural light, creating an open, airy feel. Being sold fully furnished and equipped, everything you need is already here. Simply pack your swimsuit, unpack your groceries, and start enjoying cottage life from day one. A staircase leads to the exceptional waterfront where a lakeside deck and dock overlook crystal-clear water and a sandy shoreline. The water reaches approximately 15 feet deep at the end of the dock, making it ideal for swimming, floating and diving into the refreshing lake. Spend your days fishing, kayaking, canoeing or paddleboarding before unwinding in the hot tub overlooking the water. Additional storage sheds provide plenty of room for water toys and outdoor equipment. Home to Camp Davern since 1946, Davern Lake is known for its natural beauty, welcoming community and peaceful atmosphere, with only 14 cottage properties, clear water and depths reaching approximately 75 feet. Enjoy wine tastings and exceptional dining at the neighbouring River House Vineyard & Winery, adding another memorable experience to cottage life. Properties like this rarely come to market. After more than half a century of cherished family memories, this special retreat is ready to welcome its next chapter. (id:25961)
