About this home

Steps from Okanagan Lake and a short walk to downtown Penticton, this contemporary home offers something genuinely rare on one of the city's most sought-after streets: a spacious main residence paired with a fully self-contained carriage house above a double garage. The street appeal carries through to a well-balanced main floor warmed by in-floor radiant heat, built around a chef's kitchen with a butler's pantry and an open dining and living area that flows seamlessly to a large covered concrete patio — designed for year-round outdoor living. The yard adds character with pocket gardens, an outdoor shower, and custom planters and storage benches. A main floor primary bedroom with an ensuite completes the level, offering real flexibility for single-level living, guests, or family. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms and a dedicated laundry area are accompanied by the primary suite — a genuine retreat with a spa-calibre ensuite and private office/den. A sun-soaked upper patio is accessible from both the suite and the hallway, stepping up to a showstopping private rooftop terrace with sweeping views of Okanagan Lake, the mountains, and the city lights at night. Off the alley, the detached garage is topped by a legal one-bedroom suite with its own balcony, private staircase, and dedicated parking — currently VRBO-licensed and proven as both a short- and long-term rental. A home this complete, on a street this good, doesn't come around often.
