Welcome to 7953 Hwy 28, where the quiet bend of the laneway opens to a breathtaking view and the gentle sound of Eels Creek instantly grounds you in nature. Tucked at the very end of a shared laneway and perched atop a private hill, this remarkable 3,480 sq ft custom log home overlooks an incredible 775 feet of pristine creek frontage-a rare stretch of water that brings true serenity to everyday living. Built in the 1950s with extraordinary craftsmanship, this multi-level home showcases some of the most impressive woodwork you'll ever see. The main floor features an open-concept kitchen and dining area with peaceful water views, a sunken living room anchored by a one-of-a-kind stone waterfall crafted from rocks sourced across Canada, a wood-burning fireplace, a family room with wet bar and second fireplace, a primary suite with4-pc ensuite, a second bedroom with vanity, and an additional 4-pc bath. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms-each with their own bathrooms and a cozy fireplace-offer elevated views of the creek and surrounding pines. An attached double garage/workshop with laundry provides convenience and functionality. Throughout the home, you'll find Terazzo flooring, post-and-beam construction, and an incredible variety of custom wood finishes that make every room feel warm and inviting. Set on 3.5 acres of towering pines and total privacy, this property is a peaceful escape from city life. Wander down to the creek for canoeing, kayaking, or swimming at the sandy shoreline or viewing your own little waterfall. Listen to the water as it moves gently through the trees. Enjoy quiet mornings, star-filled nights, and the kind of stillness that's hard to find anywhere else. Just minutes to Apsley for amenities, this one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat is truly a rare find. If you've been searching for unmatched craftsmanship, extraordinary natural beauty, and the calming presence of Eels Creek-this is the property you've been waiting for.
