Lake life, elevated. Welcome to a rare English River offering where space, design, and lifestyle converge on a truly picturesque waterfront lot. This expansive bungalow with a fully finished basement offers nearly 2,000 square feet per level and is built for both everyday comfort and unforgettable entertaining. The main floor is a completely open concept, anchored by a stunning kitchen with a large island and built-in appliances, flowing effortlessly into a generous dining area, sunken living room, and flexible bonus space currently used as an office. Four bedrooms complete the main level, including a luxurious primary retreat featuring French doors to the deck, triple closets, and a private ensuite. A spa-inspired main bathroom with a corner jacuzzi tub and a conveniently located powder room ensure comfort for family and guests alike. Downstairs, the home transforms into an entertainer’s dream. A custom-built wet bar with bespoke cabinetry and a built-in Coca-Cola refrigerator sets the stage, alongside a billiards room complete with a fireplace and dart board. Two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, gym space, laundry room, and ample storage round out the lower level, which conveniently circles back to the attached garage. Outside is where this property truly shines. Enjoy a 50’ x 8’ cribbed dock with an attached 16’ x 16’ floater, a massive two-tier deck with a glassed-in gazebo and hot tub, a firepit area, a log cabin bunkie or playhouse, and two additional storage sheds. A 36’ x 32’ triple-stall detached garage plus a double attached garage complete this exceptional package. This is lake life at its finest—where long summer nights, laughter-filled gatherings, and lasting family memories are not just imagined, but lived. (id:65958)

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Pick a down payment and tap any underlined number to edit. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Monthly carrying costs (shared)
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Accelerated bi-weekly frequency reduces total interest paid vs. monthly — confirm with a broker. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy. Always validate with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
