About This Home
A Handcrafted Lakeside Haven Like No Other This one-of-a-kind home is a true work of art—custom designed and built with care, featuring rich Canadian cedar throughout, inside and out. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted by a striking chandelier—an original piece handcrafted by a renowned Pacific Northwest artist—that sets the tone for this truly unique property. Wrought iron railings, also custom-made, add character and craftsmanship to every detail. Nestled on a generous lot boasting 96 feet of prime lakefront, you'll enjoy your own lakefront dock and a spacious deck—both newly rebuilt in 2017 for relaxing, entertaining, or launching a kayak at sunrise. The gourmet kitchen was fully updated in 2020 with gleaming stainless steel appliances and eye-catching granite countertops that make both cooking and gathering a pleasure. Out back, the matching wood shed and oversized garage with a loft offer both style and functionality—blending seamlessly into the home’s thoughtful aesthetic. Designed with nature in mind, the home is perfectly positioned to soak up the sun during the winter months while staying shaded and naturally cool all summer long, thanks to a smart adiabatic airflow system. If you’re looking for craftsmanship, comfort, and lakefront living all rolled into one, this home is waiting for you to build memories.
