1216 Lake Lorraine (Tory Lake) Ln
Highlands East, ON K0L 2Y0 | Monmouth | Haliburton

Set on the crystal-clear shores of peaceful Lake Lorraine, this beautifully updated 4-season waterfront cottage offers the kind of lifestyle families dream about. With southern exposure, calm mirror-like waters, and direct access to pristine spring-fed swimming, every day here feels connected to nature. The clean, weed-free shoreline and flat approach to the lake make it ideal for families, with no steep hills or endless stairs to navigate. Positioned right at the water's edge, the cottage captures stunning lake views and sunshine throughout the day. Unlike many busy lakes, Lake Lorraine (Tory Lake) is known for its tranquility, privacy, and strong sense of community. With no public boat launch, you can enjoy peaceful mornings, minimal boat traffic, and the comfort of watching children swim, fish, kayak, or skate close to shore. Thoughtfully upgraded for true year-round living, the property has been extensively improved with new water lines, water filtration system, upgraded insulation, spray foam insulation, heated plumbing systems, two cold-weather Mitsubishi heat pumps for heating and cooling, plus a WETT-certified wood-burning fireplace for cozy evenings at the lake. Every season brings something special here, from breathtaking fall colours to nearby ATV and snowmobile trails, excellent winter skating conditions, and skiing at Sir Sam's just 20 minutes away. Located in the highly desirable Highlands East/North Kawartha region, this property offers a quieter and more affordable alternative to Muskoka while still delivering the waterfront lifestyle buyers are searching for. The property is also Municipality Short-Term Rental License compliant and includes professionally prepared architectural expansion drawings, offering incredible future potential for a custom waterfront retreat or investment opportunity. A rare opportunity to own a true year-round waterfront escape designed for making lifelong memories.
