Property Description

Welcome to 138 Nicholson Point Road — a rare Lake Ontario waterfront home just minutes from Kingston, Ontario, set on a quiet road and surrounded by protected forest. This move-in ready waterfront property offers a unique combination of privacy, natural beauty, and proximity to the city — all at an approachable price point.

This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated over decades of ownership. Key upgrades include a durable metal roof, an updated Ecoflow septic system sized for a much larger home, and energy-efficient improvements such as updated windows and enhanced insulation. The result is a home you can step into with confidence.

Beyond the updates, what truly sets this Kingston-area waterfront home apart is its thoughtful design. Inspired by Christopher Alexander’s A Pattern Language, the layout emphasizes natural light, comfort, and everyday functionality. Windows on multiple sides of each room, cozy window seating, and integrated storage create a space that feels both practical and inviting.

Originally built in 1948, the home retains its character where it matters most — highlighted by beautiful red pine floors that add warmth and authenticity throughout.

The outdoor setting is equally compelling. Enjoy expansive waterfront views across Lake Ontario toward Amherst Island, mature trees, and established perennial gardens. Directly across the road, protected woodland ensures lasting privacy, with walking trails, wildflowers, and a natural landscape that will remain untouched.

This property offers a true four-season waterfront lifestyle — ideal for downsizers, couples, or anyone seeking a peaceful waterfront retreat near Kingston. The oversized septic system also provides flexibility for future expansion or the potential to build a larger waterfront home over time.

If you’ve been searching for an affordable Lake Ontario waterfront home near Kingston that you can enjoy immediately, 138 Nicholson Point Road is a rare opportunity.
