Ontario’s cottage real estate market is hot right now, but despite the many eligible listings out there, you’re unlikely to find any that compare to this Mapleton, Ont. cottage. Previously featured in Cottage Life magazine’s 2011 spring issue, this unique, theme-style cottage is selling for $699,000.

Perched on the shores of Lake Conestogo, the cottage is a short drive from the Kitchener/Waterloo and Guelph areas. Like most cottages, it features some common perks: waterfront access, a beach volleyball court, two firepits, a built-in hot tub, and two bunkies.

But where this cottage deviates from others is in its interior design. Debbie Latter, the cottage’s owner, spent years decorating each room in a particular theme, including an Elvis Presley-inspired bedroom, a 1960’s Coca-Cola-malt-shop-themed kitchen, a Dr. Seuss-designed washroom, and a medieval master bedroom.
