The Right Property. 230 Ponderosa Ave, Kaleden BC.

Close to an Acre of Lakeview Privacy! 

Beach – Across the street, tennis courts and playground too!

Offered at $1,500,000.00 MLS 10314326

Nestled in the sought-after neighborhood on the western shore of Skaha Lake, Kaleden is a charming community renowned for its peaceful ambiance and well kept amenities.

This exceptional property, located in a serene non-Airbnb zone known for its tranquility and seclusion, enchants me with its unique lifestyle offerings. Sitting in the casual dining area, I observe leisurely cyclists along the KVR trail to the south, tennis courts, and a long-forgotten public beach ahead. To reach the town, you simply turn up Lakehill, passing by the historic 1912 building, always a sight to behold with its allure and history. I can’t resist stopping at Doug’s Homestead on the way or fueling up if heading towards the coast.

As a realtor, my favorite aspect is connecting with people and properties. Each year, there’s always that ONE special property where I get to match the perfect buyer.

This property is that gem. If you’ve been keeping up with my annual private home listings, you might find it intriguing that the current owners were the former owners of my Parsons Orchard, which garnered significant attention. They also previously owned property on the Skaha Waterfront. These sellers, experienced residents of South Okanagan, have a knack for selecting homes and are now prepared for their ultimate downsizing.

This privately purchased home hasn’t been on the market before and does not fall into the need to sell held solely for rental purposes category; it’s a HOME.

A truly thoughtful architectural marvel. Yes, forgive my excitement, but this year’s marketing highlight, located opposing Highland Drive, meets all the criteria that discerning buyers in the high-end market are waiting for. And yes, you deserve it all; you just have to wait for the right moment. Here it is:

  • Nearly an acre
  • Private
  • In-law suite
  • Single-level living
  • Lake view
  • Walking distance to the lake
  • Double-car garage
  • RV parking
  • 3 bedrooms upstairs
  • Ensuite bathroom
  • Walk-in closet
  • Spacious rooms
  • Two furnaces -one up- one down
  • Hot water on demad
  • A/C electric
  • Formal and informal dining areas
  • Seamlessly integrated indoor-outdoor functional layouts
  • Pantry or butler’s kitchen with Laundry (so cute!)
  • Potential to add a pool but the lake is just a minute away – 2 mins if walking.

The property’s exposure to the afternoon sun is delightful, making me lose track of time during the listing appointment, enjoying the pleasant environment, stunning views, and the friendly dog on-site. With a fully fenced oasis safeguarding the flora from deer, thanks to collaborative efforts from the neighbors above, this property offers a distinctive appeal.

Perched above the KVR trail with tennis courts and a public beach in sight, it’s a haven for sports enthusiasts. Considering marketing strategies, I’m torn between highlighting the array of nearby activities – tennis, beach outings, lakeside biking, picnics, the historical 1912 site, Linden Gardens, Skaha Lake shore, water sports, as well as a cozy artist’s room and an in-law suite adding to its allure.

The Kaleden community, comprising both new and familiar faces, eagerly awaits the listing going live! The tulips and soaring ceilings stand ready for showings to begin, sharing in the excitement for the grand unveiling of 230 Ponderosa Ave, Kaleden BC, now open for viewing.
