This is a rare offering! An incredible triple brick construction heritage home with renovations offering 9 bedrooms and 2 baths on a sunny .43 acre lot minutes from the river. This home is one of the original Doukhobor Russian homes that was established in the Village settlement of orchards and raspberries near the Columbia River. Today, this home has been substantially renovated on the main and upper floor and leaving only some minor finishing such as trim work and drywall tape/mud. The attic space could be finished if desired and the entire unfinished basement is currently storage with brand new high end mechanical to include dual gas F/A furnaces and on demand hot water. This basement space does have a side door access that could be developed further for additional access. The front of the home offers the traditional covered veranda for peacefully sitting to take in the views, afternoon sunshine and sunrises. The side yard is spacious and has room for everything you can imagine! It's mostly fenced, has a dedicated garden space, fire pit and numerous fruit trees. There is a side deck with gorgeous wood constructed gazebo cover. This home checks all the important boxes; bedrooms, roof, doors, windows, mechanical and space with heritage charm as a bonus! This home is truly a way to live in our modern world and retain historic charm. Come see how you can make this YOUR home!

About
My name is Sharon Snelling and I have been living right here in Oliver for the last 30 years. I love this area and I cannot imagine calling anywhere else home!
I came here from England after backpacking my way around the world for 6 years. After arriving in Oliver I just knew that this was home. I embraced the lifestyle and became very passionate about camping in the summers and snowboarding in the winters. I also really enjoy curling, x-country skiing, stand up paddle boarding and horses, and currently have two horses of my own. This makes for some very fun times!
Since arriving in the South Okanagan I have worked primarily in the fruit industry and, along with my partner, have had a successful cherry export business selling cherries all around the world. I have also worked part time for Canada Post for the last ten years and some of you may recognize me from delivering your mail. In the past I have spent a number of years doing volunteer ski patrol and being a snow shoe guide at Mount Baldy.
Today I am entirely focused on real estate and extremely motivated to help you with buying or selling your home, so please don’t hesitate to contact me. I will do my absolute best to ensure your real estate transactions go as smooth as possible, and make it a fun experience as well!
