Welcome to the serene Hamlet of Burridge, located about 10 minutes from Westport, 40 to Perth and 45 to Kingston. This wonderful home has many upgrades including a new furnace, new breaker panel, new plumbing, mostly new windows in the living space, a new steel roof on much of the home and a newly owned water heater and upgraded wiring all in 2023. The spray foam on the basement walls will help to keep your home warm in the winter and the GenLink hook-up will help keep you connected when the electricity goes off. This tidy home is perfect for the first-time buyer or small family looking to live a quiet, rural life. Burridge Lake is 5 minutes down the road as well and Canoe Lake, Wolf and Rideau Lakes are all within 20 minutes, so if fishing is your thing this is the place for you. There is a cistern in the basement which is fed by the downspouts, the water can be used to wash your car or water the grass or gardens. Speaking of a garden, there is a perfect elevated spot, on this almost half-acre lot, for a garden and a gazebo for relaxing and enjoying a panoramic view of the surrounding valley. The 3 season-enclosed porch is perfect for getting outside when the day isn't so perfect, or sitting and watching a thunderstorm roll across the valley, and listening to the rain pelt the steel roof. There is a detached garage as well as a shed to store all your tools and toys in. Peace-and-quiet family life in a safe, family-oriented community, this is how life should be, your new home awaits you. Some photos have been virtually staged.
