1691 Strathcona Heights Rd

Picture evenings on a big wraparound deck above Shawnigan Lake, the hot tub warm and the hills glowing across the water. This 4 bed, 3 bath home sits on 4.99 private acres, with 2,940 sq ft of finished space over two levels. The main floor wraps around a central block chimney, with a living room and family room on either side, a dining area facing the lake and a kitchen with an eating bar, stainless appliances and a skylight. The primary bedroom has a slider to the deck and an ensuite with a corner soaker tub and separate shower, and the second bedroom on this level makes a handy office. Downstairs, the walk-out lower level adds a large rec room with a wood stove, two more bedrooms, a 3 piece bath, laundry and a big storage room. There's a heat pump with air conditioning, a drilled well, two sheds, a playhouse and a bunkie with a loft bed tucked into the trees. Baldy Mountain trails, the lake and the village are all just a short drive away.
