3886 East Shore Road, Coldwater

Custom designed cottage oasis with breathtaking sunset views overlooking Gloucester Pool. A stunning monochromatic contemporary cottage with 5 bedrooms, multiple recreational spaces, a Muskoka room with drop down automated screens and fire bowl, only begin to describe this utopia built on rock in the beautiful Muskoka forest. Polished concrete floors with radiant heat, soaring ceilings, a gas and 2nd wood burning fireplace to warm up to, a games room with bar for entertaining family and friends. The tiered landscape overlooks the waterfront with multiple outdoor seating areas, 8 person sauna, and a babbling waterfall, making this the perfect getaway. The home is smart enabled with automated blinds, remote controlled heating, and more. The gourmet kitchen has a full high end line of panelled Decor appliances, a wet bar, and large island, making it the perfect space for entertaining. The exterior features a cart path from cottage to the shore where the 2 slip single story boathouse is being constructed. Gloucester Pool is part of the Trent Severn offering some of the best year round activities available, from summer swimming and boating to winter activities including world class snowmobiling, snowshoeing and much more making this the ultimate cottage stay.

Trees will be nice around the property but the incredibly beautiful lake view compensates for the lack of trees to screen the view

Who designed and built this unique place

[@MojoPin1983]

That ridiculously massive and monotonous armourstone retaining wall utterly decimates the organic landscape and topography; what a blight. What’s worse is that it looks like they blasted away the granite outcroppings to accommodate this feature, and possibly the residence itself. Totally insensitive to the natural beauty of the landscape. Moreover, the owner(s) must have removed dozens of trees and bulldozed virtually the entire property in order to build an artificial landscape, which detracts from the natural aesthetic and atmosphere of the environment. What’s the point in destroying the very things that make this area so alluring in the first place? I wish that they had chosen to respect and work with the natural landscape instead of transforming it into a garish hardscape-heavy eyesore.
