Welcome to your private, custom-built retreat nestled in the woods on the shimmering shores of Contau Lake. This exceptional home features a post and beam style on the main level, with every detail designed to elevate lakeside living. Surrounded by towering mature trees, curated perennial gardens, and natural rock landscaping, this property offers a peaceful, park-like setting with views that are nothing short of magical. Step inside and you'll instantly feel the craftsmanship from the solid wood doors and trim to the custom cabinetry and built-in features throughout. The spacious open-concept layout is warm and inviting offering modern convenience tucked into timeless design. Enjoy comfort year-round with zoned heating and cooling, whether you're cozying up for winter weekends or hosting summer guests lakeside. The expansive cedar deck overlooks the lake and the steps lead down to an oversized cedar dock, offering all-day sun and shallow entry. Outside, you'll find numerous seating areas thoughtfully placed throughout the landscape, and covered wood storage for those crackling fires under the stars. There's an adorable she/he shed for quiet moments or creative pursuits. The detached 26' x 40' garage plus carport and a huge heated workshop (with its own hydro panel) providing endless potential whether you're into a hobby or a home-based business. Above the shop, a massive loft offers ample storage or room for future hobby space. Contau Lake is located less than 5 km from the conveniences of town and is approximately 139 hectares of clean water and granite shorelines. Excellent for swimming, canoeing, fishing and watercraft of all types, this lake is lightly developed and spring fed. Ready to experience it for yourself? Lets set up a private tour this is one you don't want to miss.
