189 Shady Maple Road, McNab/Braeside, ON

Description

Custom built, 189 Shady Maple Road is a rare waterfront offering on the Madawaska River - minutes from Burnstown, Calabogie, and White Lake. Set back in the trees for privacy, this walk-out bungalow was designed to frame the water from every angle, balancing seclusion with sweeping natural views. From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail is evident. Custom-built cabinetry, carefully selected finishes, and white oak wide plank hardwood set the tone throughout. The open concept main floor is oriented to capture spectacular waterfront views. Two bedrooms on the main level, including a primary suite with floor-to-ceiling windows, a walk-in closet, and a well-appointed ensuite. The kitchen features premium appliances, a separate pantry, and a spacious entertaining island - designed for how people actually live at the water. A Napoleon wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space. No room captures the spirit of this property quite like the four-season sunroom. Radiant heated, wrapped in natural light, and positioned perfectly on the river - it becomes everyone's favourite from the first visit. The walk-out lower level extends the living space with two additional bedrooms, a dedicated home theatre, office and bar space, separate laundry, and a custom finished sauna - all with engineered white oak and radiant in-floor heat. Every system was built for year-round comfort: efficient electric heating and cooling, whole-home water filtration and softening, standby generator, steel roof and siding, and a propane-heated oversized garage. Outside, a spacious deck overlooks the water - the natural gathering place for morning coffee and long summer evenings. Steps down, a dock puts you directly on the Madawaska, known for clean, deep water and ideal conditions for swimming, fishing, and boating. Custom built, thoughtfully finished, and positioned on one of the region's most coveted waterways. Properties like this rarely come to market.
