Description

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of the Slocan Valley Tucked away on over 11 acres of peaceful, forested land, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect blend of privacy, nature, and character just minutes from the sparkling shores of Slocan Lake. The home itself has been lovingly lived in and is filled with personality, a blend of European charm, funky Valley flair, and curated touches chosen specifically for each space. The main floor features an open layout with a spacious kitchen, walk-in pantry, and gorgeous views from every window. Step out onto the large patio and take in the beauty of the backyard, or step into the attached studio/office that offers a bright and peaceful space to focus or unwind. Upstairs, recent updates have created a bright, functional layout with three bedrooms, a powder room, and a sunny sitting/family area. With a separate serviced home site, a large spring-fed pond, and unzoned potential—this lush, private retreat is a true Slocan Valley treasure. (id:63159)
