Welcome to this exceptional custom-built timber frame home on the pristine shores of Whitefish Lake. Set on almost 18 acres of mature forest with over 2,400 of waterfrontage, this rare property boasts stunning eastern views across the lake toward the iconic Rock Dunder. Designed with quality craftsmanship throughout, the home features soaring cathedral ceilings and an open-concept layout that showcases the warmth and character of exposed timber construction. The custom kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring handcrafted butternut cabinetry, granite countertops, and ample space. Custom maple cabinetry continues into the bathrooms, while a beautiful spiral staircase with solid ash treads serves as a striking architectural centerpiece. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom conveniently located on the main floor. Built on a slab-on-grade foundation and heated with efficient radiant in-floor heat, the home provides year-round comfort in every season. Completely off-grid, the property is serviced by a drilled well, septic system, and a reliable diesel generator backup system. A large open field provides the perfect setting for family gatherings, outdoor activities, and special events. Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the extensive vegetable gardens, established asparagus patch, separate raspberry patch, and small greenhouse. Additional improvements include a detached 2-car garage with a loft workshop, ideal for hobbies, storage, or projects, along with a 16' x 20' metal storage shed for equipment and seasonal items. A possible lot severance is available that a new owner could explore if desired. The waterfront is truly outstanding, offering deep, clean water ideal for swimming, boating, fishing, and all your favourite lake activities. A large floating dock provides easy access to the water, while a natural jumping rock adds a touch of adventure for the brave.
