Live The Dream ... Morning Coffee On A Quiet Covered Porch

This property is an easy drive into Peterborough with tremendous exposure on Highway # 7 which is the main transportation link to cottage country and onto Ottawa. If you're thinking of a small business (art studio, woodworking, B&B, kennel) as a way to keep busy for a few years while you enjoy a dream lifestyle, this may be the opportunity you've been looking for.

The really beautiful thing about this property is the location. Just minutes from Peterborough, a "university town" with a diverse and interesting cultural foundation.
