Quiet, rural living yet only 10 minutes to downtown Qualicum! Newer contemporary house on private, forested 4.4 ac Bright, and spacious, with oversized windows throughout to take in the serene garden and forest. Come through the front door to a view of the stream that gives the illusion it's coming from underneath the house. The great room features floor to ceiling tiled fireplace with efficient, wood burning RSF insert. Kitchen boasts granite counters with a quartz waterfall bar that seats six. Walk-in pantry gives you ample storage. Separate laundry room with space for second fridge and/or freezer. Master on main with spa-like ensuite, heated floors, walk-in tiled shower (no glass to clean!) and a separate soaker tub. Office/den on main can be used as a guest bedroom with a 3 piece bathroom close by, also with a heated floor. Full bathroom and two bedrooms upstairs, each with its own walk-in closet. Enjoy S'mores at the outdoor fire pit in the lower garden area or sip wine under the covered patio off the kitchen. Lots of forest past the garden for exploring and making trails, shared with owls, squirrels and deer. Attached double garage, wired for electric vehicles along with generator hook up for backup power for the rare power outage. A separate, oversized and heated, two bay shop will store all your toys and also offers RV hook up to septic, water and 30amp power. Endless quad trails nearby! Great swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing on Spider Lake a few km down road and Illusion Lakes a short walk away, or Horne Lake only a 5 minute drive away, not to mention the Horne Lake caves. Plus the ocean is just down the hill with marinas close by. Lots of great golf courses! A quaint local farm market for ice cream cones, espressos, local produce & essentials during summer months make the Spider Lake community a very special place to live.
