1022 TULLYS WAY, Tay Valley, Ontario

About This Property

Welcome to Rivendell at 1022 Tullys Way, a truly special mid-century modern inspired sanctuary where architectural design completely blends into 1.32 acres of forested privacy on the rugged Canadian Shield. Designed by architect Peter Dobbing, this home sits beautifully along 220 feet of crystal-clear, swimmable shoreline on Long Lake, offering the perfect balance of peaceful isolation and everyday convenience with its detached double garage and year-round road access. Inside, the soul of the home is a dramatic two-story brick hearth and wood-burning fireplace, beautifully framed by warm terracotta tile flooring and handcrafted custom cabinetry. The layout is incredibly thoughtful, featuring a main-floor primary suite with a stylishly updated bathroom, a bright sunroom, and a cozy three-season lounge made for watching nature over the water. Upstairs, an airy loft looks down onto the great room, leading to a spacious second bedroom and a light-filled third-floor retreat that serves as the perfect home office, studio, or an optional extra bedroom with sweeping, panoramic lake views. Even the engineering is impressive, utilizing an innovative rock bed plenum heating and cooling system that uses the natural mass of stone to provide silent, draft-free comfort all year round. Outside, your living space expands across multi-level decks, including a handy kitchen-side BBQ spot and a massive lower deck under the pines, before a gentle path leads you down to a substantial dock and a handy waterfront storage shed built to tuck away all your gear, like life jackets, kayaks, and water toys. It is a rare opportunity to own a home that exists in perfect harmony with nature, so come take a look and experience the magic of Rivendell for yourself.
