Don't Just Change Your Address. Change Your Lifestyle. Are you looking for a place where people know your name, and community still means something? Where neighbours wave as they pass, stop to talk, and show up for one another without hesitation? Where family gatherings stretch into long summer evenings, and weekends are spent together instead of scheduled away? If that's what you've been missing, you'll find it here. Here, you're not just buying a waterfront home- you're stepping into a community people are genuinely proud to belong to. Welcome to Amherst Island and this beautifully updated waterfront 4-bed, 3-bath bungalow, offering year-round living on the shores of Lake Ontario. Set on a level waterfront lot with mature trees, open lawn, and multiple outdoor gathering spaces, this property is designed for making the most of life by the water. Spend summer days kayaking, boating, swimming, or relaxing by the shoreline firepit, then enjoy quiet evenings under the gazebo or on the expansive rear deck overlooking the lake. The updated bungalow offers bright, comfortable living spaces, air conditioning, and a layout that works equally well as a full-time residence or weekend escape. The fully finished lower level features a complete in-law suite with its own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living area, and separate entrance. With Amherst Island attracting visitors year-round for its waterfront lifestyle, cycling, hiking, birdwatching, and internationally recognized owl migration at nearby Owl Woods, the suite offers excellent potential for extended family, guest accommodation, or short-term rental income. A classic barn adds character and practical storage or workshop space. Amherst Island is connected by a regular ferry service just west of Kingston and is within easy reach of Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal, making this an ideal getaway or year-round home with a pace of life that feels worlds away from the city.More details
