Set at the end of a private lane on the shores of Opinicon Lake, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom bungalow offers 1,660 sq ft of updated living space on a 1.554-acre lot with direct west-facing waterfront. The main level has a primary bedroom, an open living area with a wood-burning fireplace, and a large deck with sunset views over the lake. The fully finished walk-out basement adds three more bedrooms, a full bathroom, a recreation room, and access to the patio and yard below.

The lot features 45.65 meters of natural shoreline with a private dock, and the property is serviced by a drilled well, full septic, and propane forced air heat.
Opinicon Lake is part of the historic Rideau Canal system, part of the same waterway that connects Kingston to Ottawa, making it a particularly special address for boaters. The Queens University Biological Station and The Opinicon Resort are both on the lake, and the surrounding area is rich with natural and recreational interest.
Who this is for: Buyers looking for a move-in-ready, four-season waterfront property on the Rideau Canal system at a revised price point.

This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom Viceroy home sits within Bayside Woods Cooperative on the shores of Bobs Lake, one of the largest lakes in the region, stretching 19 kilometers with countless islands, bays, and inlets to explore. The cooperative is made up of 14 property owners who share just under 5 acres of common land, a boat ramp, and dock facilities, along with approximately 1,100 feet of southwest-facing shoreline.
The home itself sits on 4.7 acres and is built on an ICF poured concrete foundation, a testament to its solid, well-insulated construction. Inside, cathedral ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the living room with light, and a wood-burning fireplace anchors the space. There are two bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the main level, plus a loft that works well as an additional sleeping area or home office. The lower level adds a finished recreation room with an electric fireplace and walk-out access to the yard. A large cedar deck overlooks the land as it slopes gently toward the clear, inviting water below.
The home is set up for year-round use with fibre optic internet and all major appliances included. Annual cooperative fees of approximately $3,522 cover common area hydro, docks, all maintenance, and taxes.
Who this is for: Buyers drawn to Bobs Lake who want a finished, move-in-ready home within a tight-knit cooperative community, with shared infrastructure taken care of.
