Miles away from the stress of city living, a driveway meanders down Kalamalka Slopes towards the green-blue waters of Kal Lake. It opens onto a flat landing & what appears to be a classic frontier log cabin. Far from it, this Modern Log Home unfolds into Cathedral Ceilings, a towering 25 ft Stone F/P & floor-to-ceiling CORNER WINDOWS, overlooking "soaring views of sky, mtns, forest & that magical lake!” This 5771 sq ft homestead, CUSTOM BUILT by Highland Log Builders is a perfect combination of luxury & laid-back comfort offering 5BDs/3BAs, two 1BD/1BA suites & a 299 sq ft caretaker’s “bunkie”. Set on 7.11 acres of unobstructed, panoramic lake views, this Semi-Waterfront property is separated from one of the world's 10 most beautiful lakes (National Geographic) by only the Rail Trail. Wander past your small orchard, through woodlands scattered w/ wildflowers, to the edge of the acreage, where you can hop in for a swim or cycle to the Rail Trail Cafe! Outside is a KIT/DR/LR w/Blackstone Flat Top Grill, Pizza Oven, Bar & Dining Area under a canopy of stars with seating to cosy up beside your outdoor stone F/P, or head to the fire pit for marshmallow roasting and stargazing! Choose the PRIMARY BDRM off the main living area, w/ European Style Ensuite to drift off to sleep overlooking lake end, or convert the upper floor into a LUXURY LOFT! Either way, downstairs offers friends & family their own private suites. Just a 5 minute drive to hospital, restaurants, shops & much more!
