Welcome to 1676 8th Line, located just 5 minutes from the village of Lakefield. This picturesque homestead suits slow mornings and long evenings outdoors. Sitting on a peaceful and private 3.12-acre lot, a charming wood bungalow is surrounded by plenty of mature perennial gardens and trees, including irises, peonies, and lilacs. Plus there's a powered, insulated hobby "She Shed" just steps from a tranquil pond. In front, you'll enjoy a serene view of majestic horses grazing in the pasture across the road. Relax on the covered front deck, unwind on the back deck, and gather with family and friends around the smokeless fire pit. Inside, pine floors carry through a bright, easy-flowing main level, warmed by a crackling wood fireplace alongside an oil furnace. The 2+1 bedroom, 2-bath layout includes a finished lower level. Downstairs there's a rec room and third bedroom, both with new carpet, as well as an updated 3-pc bath with cozy in-floor heating, plus laundry and storage rooms. The detached garage (approx. 20' x 24') fits one car and offers additional storage. Part of the lot qualifies for the Conservation Land Tax Incentive Program, and Selwyn taxes run lower than Peterborough's. New shingles were installed this past summer, and a pre-inspection is available for added peace of mind. Don't miss out. If you enjoy country living, and appreciate the conveniences available just 5 minutes away in the village of Lakefield, book your showing and see this one-of-a-kind property today. (id:2493)
