Cherished by the same family for many years, this special waterfront retreat at 2189B Shaw Road (accessed through Wiggle Road) is ready to begin its next chapter. Set on nearly one acre of private waterfront with an impressive 209 feet of shoreline, this property offers the rare combination of space, privacy, nearly year-round road access and an authentic Northern Ontario cottage lifestyle, all approximately one hour from Sudbury. Located on beautiful Trout Lake near Alban, the area is renowned for its peaceful natural setting and four-season recreational opportunities, from boating and fishing in the warmer months to snowmobiling, ATVing, hunting and winter adventures when the snow arrives. Trout Lake is a long, narrow lake surrounded by the rugged beauty of Northern Ontario, offering plenty of opportunity to get out on the water and explore. The approximately 700 sq. ft. cottage has been designed to take full advantage of its spectacular waterfront setting, with a large open-concept kitchen, dining and living area all oriented toward the lake, while three bedrooms are tucked away along the rear of the cottage. A small bonus room at the end of the hallway could potentially be converted into a convenient two-piece bathroom, adding even more functionality. Step outside and the cottage lifestyle truly comes alive. A large wraparound, partially covered deck provides an incredible outdoor living space overlooking the lake, with a south-facing panoramic setting perfect for enjoying beautiful morning and evening skies. Down at the water, the approximately 55-foot dock features a 15-foot fixed section plus two 20-foot floating sections, creating an ideal launch point for swimming, boating and relaxing by the water. The property also includes a 12' x 12' heated bunkie, outdoor shower with hot water, outhouse and storage shed, along with a large level lawn where children and pets can run and play. A private boat launch located down the side driveway adds tremendous convenience. Privacy is enhanced by Crown Land adjoining the west side of the property, providing additional space and a wonderful natural buffer. Recent improvements include new flooring throughout the cottage, a modern refrigerator and range installed in 2022, new roof shingles on both the cottage and bunkie in 2024, and new hydro/telephone poles installed on the property in 2023. Bell Canada is also currently in the process of bringing fibre-optic service to the area. Some properties are simply more than a cottage—they are where generations of family memories are made. 2189B Shaw Road is one of those special places. After many years of being enjoyed by one family, this cherished Trout Lake retreat is ready for someone new to carry on the tradition.
