Welcome to "Boomstick" - a truly iconic property set along the pristine shores of Kennisis Lake. Originally built as a historic hunt camp by the owners of Haliburton Forest, this one-of-a-kind retreat blends rich heritage with thoughtful modern updates, creating a lakeside experience unlike any other. Boasting an impressive 546 feet of sandy waterfront and coveted southwesterly exposure, you'll enjoy all-day sun and unforgettable sunset views stretching across the lake. The main residence offers five bedrooms and two bathrooms, where warm bamboo flooring, custom marquetry cabinetry, and a striking double-sided stone fireplace create a space that is both inviting and full of character. Designed for year-round comfort, the home is equipped with a Generac backup system and a new furnace for added peace of mind. Set on 1.98 acres-with the rare opportunity to acquire an additional 69.5 acres across the road-this property is a private natural playground. Winding trails, curated outdoor art, and serene forested surroundings make every corner feel intentional and inspiring. A private boat launch provides effortless access to Kennisis Lake, while the property's outbuildings elevate both function and recreation. These include a 16' x 32' insulated workshop, a 320 sq ft bunkie with composting toilet, and a spacious garage reimagined as an indoor pickleball court with second-level storage. "Boomstick" is more than a property-it's a legacy retreat, offering an extraordinary blend of history, privacy, and lakeside living in the heart of Haliburton County. (id:36835)
