"The prettiest spot in Westport." Ideal for a romantic weekend get away, a calm quiet nature retreat or a fun shopping spree in the Westport boutiques. Ideal for 1-4 people seeking privacy and tranquility with proximity to a vibrant rural village, this beautiful 2 Bedroom, 4 season vacation home has just been renovated with hardwood floors, fireplace, large cedar deck & screened in porch with master bedroom walk-out and full finished basement/games room. The home is equipped with wireless internet and air conditioning and is situated on 3 acres at the base of Foley Mountain. The property is gorgeous with a variety of large trees, lush lawn and gardens. The property is on the shore of Westport Pond which is a large pond/marsh and is not directly connected to the Rideau System. The home is 30' from the waters edge where nature abounds. Eagles, osprey, loons, ducks, geese and white tailed deer can be seen out the front window. Although the Westport Pond is not a swim-able due to its depth, it is an amazing bird, fish and wildlife sanctuary and there is a public beach on Sand lake 5 minutes walk from the door. This is one of the most tranquil locations you will find....and the location is fantastic! A 10 minute walk takes you to the centre of the beautiful village of Westport, 5 minutes to stroll the Rideau Nature Trail and 5 minutes to Sand Lake Beach. Foley Mountain Conservation area can be accessed by foot. For boaters and fishers, there are free boat ramps onto Upper Rideau, Sand, Wolf and Canoe Lakes a very short distance away. By canoe, you can be paddling to Kingston or Ottawa (both downhill as Westport is the Watershed), camping at the historic locks all the way. This peaceful retreat home has large windows looking out onto the pond and towards the town of Westport. You will find a fully equipped modern kitchen, gas BBQ, all the comforts of home, all the tranquility of country living. Perfect for 2 guests but can accommodate 4.
Westport is located 90 minutes from Ottawa and 50 minutes from Kingston Ontario and is located on the Rideau Canal which was recently recognized as a World Heritage Site. A perfect blend of nature and rural life. You will love it!!
