Here is a rare opportunity to revitalize a well known rural destination and unlock the potential of a classic cottage country general store. The Maple Leaf Country Store offers the foundation to re-establish a thriving business or pursue a variety of commercial ventures. The property has historically supported multiple revenue streams and remains configured for many of its former uses.

The retail space offers approximately 1,500 sq ft and includes refrigeration units, a back store room, and a full basement providing substantial storage capacity. A detached barn and shed add valuable additional space and were previously utilized for bottle returns, while offering flexibility for a variety of commercial or storage uses. Above the store is a 1-bed, 1.5-bath apartment with a separate entrance and laundry room, providing convenient on-site living for owners or staff, or the potential for additional rental income. Located in Maple Leaf with direct Highway 62 exposure and convenient access to Bancroft, Barry's Bay, and Algonquin Park, the property is strategically situated within a well-travelled cottage and tourism corridor.
