The Call of 3928 West Canal Road
There’s something quietly magical about 3928 West Canal Road. Perfectly positioned within Severn Township, it rests at that natural entry point where the smooth landscape of Southern Ontario gives way to the ancient rock of the Canadian Shield — a shift you can feel as soon as you cross into Sparrow Lake.
This gorgeous, expansive property sits lovingly on the banks of the Severn River, where time slows and water speaks. Easily accessible from Highway 11, you can step onto your dock and take a short, scenic river ride into beautiful Sparrow Lake — leaving the city behind, yet feeling perfectly connected to adventure.
The home itself — almost 3,000 square feet — unfolds gracefully over two levels. Sunlight spills through windows everywhere, reflecting on the water. Three fireplaces invite warmth, conversation, and quiet evenings where time seems to pause. There’s room for everyone: three bedrooms, two family rooms, and an open-concept kitchen that gathers people together. Step out, and the level yard welcomes barefoot play, laughter, and evenings by the fire pit under the stars.
Down by the water’s edge, a gentle shoreline opens to a private dock and deck. Beneath the trees, a shaded nook offers a perfect spot for morning coffee or quiet reflection as the river drifts by.
From here, adventure radiates in every direction. Hiking trails wind through pine-scented forest air. Calm paddling routes call your name. In winter, snowshoeing and snowmobiling paths are right at your doorstep. And of course, there’s that irresistible truth — from the Trent–Severn Waterway, you can literally boat around the world. It makes me smile (and maybe dream a little) to picture leaving your calm cottage dock and gliding into the St. Lawrence Seaway.
