An exceptional & rarely available lakefront estate on the pristine shores of Shawnigan Lake, this trophy property is the perfect blend of timeless charm, functionality, & lakeside luxury. Originally an A-frame cottage, the main home underwent a stunning transformation in 1999, creating a spacious 4-bedroom residence designed for year-round living. The main floor features an open-concept kitchen, living, & dining space that’s perfect for entertaining. The large rec room & the main floor bedroom share a charming Jack-&-Jill bathroom, while the dining area opens onto an expansive cedar deck overlooking a lush green lawn. A whimsical footbridge crosses a meandering stream, leading to a magical backyard oasis complete with a treehouse & swing set — a true children’s paradise. On the second floor, you will find the generous primary bedroom with a lovely ensuite featuring a clawfoot tub/shower. The primary bedroom ceiling is open to the exercise/meditation area of the third floor, adding character & flexibility to the layout. A separate one-or two-bedroom suite provides incredible versatility for extended family, guests, or potential rental income. The covered front porch offers a cozy space for gathering, rain or shine. Lakeside, a charming 2-bedroom A-frame guest cabin, offers a private retreat with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame spectacular views & a majestic stone fireplace as its focal point. The large sun-filled deck is a great place to BBQ & relax while you enjoy fun days with family & friends at the lake. The waterfront is simply outstanding, boasting a sunny beach area, a beautifully maintained dock, & breathtaking lake views. Whether you're boating, swimming, or relaxing by the water, this is lakeside living at its finest. The fully irrigated property also has a 25 kW auto-start propane generator for back-up power. This trophy estate is the ultimate family retreat — warm, welcoming, & ready to create memories for generations to come.
