About this home

Set on a private 1.49-acres, this one-of-a-kind property offers beautiful views of Okanagan Lake and a lifestyle defined by space, serenity, and natural beauty. Built in 2000 and cherished by its original owner as a summer home, this 2.5-level home has been a peaceful escape designed for making lasting memories. Inside, the home is bright and welcoming, with impressive ceiling heights and an open layout. The main level flows seamlessly between the kitchen, dining, and living areas, anchored by a cozy gas fireplace and extending out to a spacious, recently updated view deck—ideal for indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen features an island with seating and newer fridge and range, and the primary bedroom with 4-pc ensuite is also on the main level, making the design very functional. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a versatile seating area with tranquil lake views-perfect as a reading nook, lounge or home office. The lower level includes another bedroom and a large recreation room that opens onto a ground-level patio, offering excellent potential for a suite or short-term rental. The property is fenced, and offers a sense of seclusion while being walking distance to two wineries, Gable & Coral beaches, and just 12 minutes from Lake Country shopping and Predator Ridge. With room to build a detached shop, this property delivers a rare combination of privacy, views, and authentic Okanagan charm. A truly special offering with a space and setting that is hard to replicate.

Lie of the land

Falls toward the northwest at an overall 19% grade; 26% of the parcel is steeper than 30%, and the ground changes about 27 m (88 ft) in elevation across it

Parcel area and local government from ParcelMap BC; zoning from the published zoning map of the District of Lake Country; ALR from the Agricultural Land Commission boundary; floodplains from the Province’s designated floodplain mapping, which is decades old and incomplete, so local governments set flood construction levels and the absence of a designation here is not a clearance. The lie of the land is measured from the Province's LidarBC 1 m bare-earth elevation model, flown in 2025, across the parcel itself; it reads the ground, not the buildings, so banks and retaining walls count as steep ground. None of this replaces a title search, a survey or confirmation with the local government, which is the authority on zoning.
