Imagine waking to the shimmer of Kootenay Lake, stepping outside with your morning coffee, and ending the day surrounded by mountains, water, and the people you love. Just minutes from Nelson, this extraordinary North Shore lakefront home, with brand new roof, is a place designed for living well. Its distinctive architecture draws the lake and landscape into nearly every room, while four sets of patio doors open to an incredible 2,400 sq. ft. patio made for long summer days by the solar-heated pool, quiet evenings in the hot tub, and unforgettable dinners under the open sky. Inside, warm wood ceilings, walls of windows, and a bright, welcoming flow create a home that feels both relaxed and timeless. Gather around the generous kitchen, share a favourite bottle from the wine cellar, wander through mature gardens and past the fish pond to follow the path to your own private sandy beach for an evening swim. With a serene primary retreat, thoughtful guest spaces, attached double garage, new roof, and numerous recent updates, this is more than a beautiful waterfront home—it’s a place for family, friendship, laughter, and a lifetime of Kootenay memories.
