A 2.23 acre island comprised of 3400 sq. ft. main cottage, plus a sleeping cabin, work out cabin, sauna, utility shed and two docking areas, Moffat is just one km from the storied Ojibway Club in Pointe au Baril, Georgian Bay.
The custom designed post and beam main cottage is actually two twinned structures, the first, the east cottage, built in 1993 and, as the family grew, the second, the west cottage, added in 2008. The two cottages are linked by a 480 sq. ft. screened porch.
Fronting on the north side of the island both cottages feature an open plan main floor with loft above, reclaimed wood floors, floor to ceiling windows revealing spectacular water views on all sides and walk outs to a large deck which spans the entire length of the joined structures.
The East Cottage
The east cottage is open in plan with a living and dining area, a very spacious open kitchen with adjacent laundry/utility room, a ground floor bedroom and a three piece powder room. Stairs to the loft lead to an airy second bedroom and a two piece bath.
The living room is warmed by a zero clearance wood burning fireplace and opens onto the front deck.
The dining area appears to float above the water wrapped by windows to the north and east which afford glorious views and flood the room with natural light.
The spacious 140 sq. ft. kitchen, just adjacent to the dining room, features built-in cupboards, generous counter/prep areas and high end appliances; Sub Zero Fridge/Freezer, Ceramic Cooktop, Miele Microwave/Convection oven, Miele Dishwasher, Kitchen Aid Trash Compactor and Garburator and stainless steel double sink. A three sided bar/counter surrounding the kitchen provides extra seating.
Off the kitchen is a three piece bath (with shower) and a laundry/utility room with stacked Maytag Neptune Washer/Dryer, Kenmore Beverage Fridge and a Silhouette Wine Cooler plus generous built in cupboards for storage of extra supplies.
Tucked in the south east corner of the ground floor is a bedroom with views to the water on two sides.
The West Cottage
The west cottage features a living room with a stone, floor to ceiling wood burning fireplace, a wet bar with sink and beverage fridge and a main floor master bedroom with walk in closet/dressing room, a three piece bath with soaker tub and a private outdoor shower.
The second floor loft accommodates a large leather pull out sofa bed, an office area and a workout area.
The Screened Porch
The main entrance to the east and west cottages is via the screened porch. A 480 sq. ft. the porch is spacious enough to accommodate a large dining table, a conversation area with wicker couches and chairs, a billiard table, and a gas barbeque and electric Traeger wood pellet grill/stove both of which can be rolled out to an open back deck. Screen doors open onto the extensive front deck. The porch is a favourite place to entertain and to idle away summer days.
The North Deck
The front/north deck spans the entire 90' length of the two cottages and central screened porch. Conversation groupings of teak and wicker furniture create intimate spaces inviting one to enjoy the spectacular water views to the west east and north. A transparent porch railing of cedar posts and tempered glass allow unimpeded views in all directions.
The Sleeping Cottage
The sleeping cottage, overlooking the south harbour, has a three piece bath with shower and one large bedroom with bunks and a double bed.
The Workout Cabin
What appears to be an old ice house at the north edge of the shoreline has been converted into a work out facility with free weights and a stationary bike.
The Sauna
A sauna and sun deck are sited at the waterside beside the north harbour.
The Harbours
Two deep water docking areas, one on the front/north side of the island the other to the south ensures safe docking in all weathers. Both have high quality steel/cedar docks and decks. The north dock can accommodate 3 boats. The south harbour is in a sheltered back bay and has a docking system which can provide tie up for seven boats.
A sand beach in the south bay is ideal for young children to wade and play and is perfect for launching watercraft and a small cabin by the docks provides storage for marine related items.
Location
Moffat Island is an easy ten minute boat run from Pointe au Baril marinas via the main channel. Pointe au Baril is a 2.5 hour drive from Toronto's International Pearson Airport and the GTA via 400 series highways.
Moffat is just one km from the Ojibway Club, the social and recreational centre of the Pointe au Baril cottage community which offers tennis, a children's camp, fine dining and a whole roster of activities geared for the cottage community.
It is also ideally situated for day trips to neighbouring picnic islands; the McCoys, Limestones and the Minks and, some say, the most superb fresh water sailing and boating in North America.
A Turn Key Property
All of the structures on the island have been very well maintained and are in are in impeccable condition. The main cottages, both Normerica Building Systems, were constructed by highly regarded local builders, the East Cottage by Adamanda Custom and the West Cottage by Rolar Construction.
Offered fully furnished this is an absolutely turn key property. With three separate dwelling areas Moffat Island would be ideal for a family with teenagers, or an extended family and/or for those who love to entertain.
