Nestled in the heart of Machar Township, this 5-acre treed lot offers a peaceful retreat with rolling terrain and a meandering stream that adds charm and potential for the occasional brook trout catch. The property is naturally wooded, providing privacy and a sense of seclusion, yet it's conveniently located on a year-round municipal road with hydro available just across the road. An old cottage sits near the roadside no longer of value, but it's existing cement pad could serve as a solid foundation for future building plans. Whether you're envisioning a rustic getaway or a new build surrounded by nature, this lot offers a versatile canvas. Just minutes from South River, you'll have easy access to groceries, gas, restaurants and other essential amenities while enjoying the tranquility of your own slice of Northern Ontario.
