REMARKABLE RETREAT WHERE REFINED LIVING MEETS THE NATURAL BEAUTY OF MUSKOKA ON NEARLY 90 PRISTINE ACRES!

Schools

Imagine arriving at your own private drive, embraced by a canopy of mature forest, and winding your way through the trees until the landscape opens to reveal a breathtaking scene: a serene pond dotted with lilies and crowned by a central fountain, manicured grounds that feel like a private park, and a home so charming and meticulously presented, it looks like it’s straight out of Better Homes & Gardens magazine. Welcome to 2411 Southwood Road, an exceptional Muskoka retreat offering nearly 90 acres of natural beauty, total seclusion, and a fully updated home that’s as refined as it is inviting – plus the added benefit of bordering approximately 100 acres of crown land for even more privacy and access to untouched wilderness.

The moment you arrive, it’s clear this property is something truly special. Tucked well back from the road, the home offers a peaceful sense of arrival that immediately sets the tone. The grounds are a testament to meticulous care: mature perennial gardens burst with colour, and the expansive lawn is kept pristine with an in-ground sprinkler system. Wildlife frequently makes appearances – swans glide through the water, deer wander near the tree line, and you may even spot a moose or bear in the distance.

Step inside, and you’re welcomed by a soaring wood-plank cathedral ceiling with exposed beams, lending warmth and grandeur to the 1,512 sq. ft. open-concept interior. Engineered hickory hardwood flows underfoot, guiding you from the airy kitchen through the sunlit dining space and into a cozy living room. Oversized windows perfectly frame panoramic pond views that change with the seasons and are always breathtaking. A wood stove adds rustic charm and comfort, while multiple walkouts invite you outdoors to take in the view from every angle.

The kitchen is a masterpiece in function and design: crisp white cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, a herringbone tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a showstopping waterfall-edge peninsula with seating. The adjacent dining area features a built-in sideboard with drawer storage and a matching Cambria top, which is both elegant and practical.

The primary bedroom offers private access to a serene deck where morning coffee becomes a ritual, and its beautifully remodelled ensuite boasts heated flooring and designer finishes. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family or guests and are serviced by a stylish main 4-piece bathroom that echoes the home’s clean, modern aesthetic. A main-floor laundry area with an upgraded washer and dryer adds everyday convenience, while the basement offers practical storage space. 

Outside, the property continues to impress with a newer 3-car carport, a detached 2-car garage, and driveway parking for 10+ vehicles. An updated HRV unit and newer A/C offer modern comfort. Power outages won’t slow you down here thanks to a 10 kW generator and high-speed internet, so staying connected and comfortable is never a concern, even when the lights go out.

Perfectly positioned approximately 15 minutes from downtown Gravenhurst, you’ll enjoy easy access to grocery stores, shops, schools, medical services, and the iconic Muskoka Wharf with its steamship cruises and waterfront dining. Explore nearby trails at Torrance Barrens and Hardy Lake, tee off at local golf courses, or spend your days at public beaches and year-round community events.

Whether you’re looking to unwind, explore, entertain, or take in the beauty around you, this rare and remarkable property offers an unmatched lifestyle. There truly is nothing else like it.
