Click the "Link" tab to view the iGuide and lifestyle film. A distinguished sanctuary on celebrated Charleston Lake, Bella Vista - Italian for "beautiful view" - embodies the spirit of this remarkable four-season waterfront estate. Spanning 5.5 acres on the lake's pristine shoreline, the custom residence draws inspiration from the owners' admiration for South American design. With more than 100 islands and 162 kilometers of coastline, Charleston Lake is renowned for its clarity, exceptional angling, and dramatic natural beauty. Positioned northeast of Gananoque with convenient access to major centres - near two international U.S. crossings, 1 hour from Ottawa, 2.5 hours from Montreal, just over 3.5 hours from Toronto, and approximately 6.5 hours from New York City - the setting is perfectly suited to a private family haven or executive getaway. The estate unfolds as a curated collection of living spaces: a principal home overlooking the water, boathouse with guest accommodations, seasonal cottage, separate villa, triple garage with full bar, secondary garage housing a gym and games lounge, two bunkies, and an elevated entertainment pavilion. Exterior amenities include a heated drive, outdoor chef's kitchen, multiple gathering terraces, warmed pool, twin spas, cascading waterfall, fireplace, firepit, hammocks, and sculpted landscaping. The boathouse supports lakeside entertaining with docking, storage, and electric lift capability. Winter brings cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, skating, and direct access to OFSC snowmobile trails. Whether welcoming guests, enjoying quiet time with family, or hosting associates, Bella Vista represents an uncommon opportunity to own a resort-inspired retreat on one of Ontario's most coveted lakes - where the experience is as memorable as the panorama.
