Description

Offered for the first time, this Sproat Lake waterfront estate spans 1.2 acres and showcases over 7,000 sqft of refined West Coast architecture. The main floor features solid Santos mahogany floors, a generous primary suite, den, formal living and dining rooms, and a relaxed family room and kitchen with recently updated stainless steel appliances, including a double wall oven. Three fireplaces—all pre plumbed for propane—add warmth and sophistication. Expansive decks frame sweeping views of Stirling Arm, with lake vistas from nearly every room. Downstairs, a full workshop and hobby room accompany a pool table room and a unique wine cellar. An efficient heat pump ensures year round comfort, while a 3 car garage plus a lower level garage provide exceptional storage. With southwest exposure, the more than 2700sqft private yellow cedar dock, offers unforgettable sunsets, and wonderful family experiences. This is a rare lakeside offering. (id:63159)
