Pt W 1/2 Location FM143 Ward Island, Kenora Remote Area

Welcome to Ward Island. Not polished. Not oversized. Not built to impress the neighbours or chase trends. Just an honest 3 bedroom Lake of the Woods cottage in a truly beautiful setting, where generations of family memories were made the old-fashioned way. Offered as part of an estate sale, this boat access and ice road access property represents an opportunity that many thought had disappeared from Lake of the Woods and represents an attainable way to own a private slice of lake life without the staggering price tags that now dominate our market. Set on a stunning and private lot with deep water frontage, excellent swimming, and expansive lake views, the setting is everything people fall in love with about the Canadian Shield. Towering trees, rugged shoreline, quiet mornings, the sound of boats in the distance, and the kind of peace that only comes with being a little farther out. The cottage itself is simple, functional, and full of character. Approximately 768 sq ft with 3 bedrooms plus an attached screened veranda of roughly 192 sq ft, it has served this family well for decades. There is no hydro, no plumbed bathroom, and no pretension. Propane appliances handle the essentials and the outhouse keeps things true to classic cottage life. This is a place where kids can spend their days outside. Where fishing rods lean against trees. Where you arrive by boat with coolers and groceries packed carefully for the weekend. Where evenings are spent playing cards in the screen room while the loons call across the lake. Yes, the property shows its age in places, but it remains entirely usable and ready for its next chapter. Whether you preserve its classic charm, gradually improve it over time, or simply enjoy it exactly as generations before have, opportunities like this are becoming harder and harder to find. This is an authentic Lake of the Woods getaway with privacy, scenery, adventure, and soul at a price that is still within reach.
