Set on a quiet dead-end street with beach rights, this 1,458 sq ft raised ranch is perfect for lake access without the premium price. Inside, you'll find vaulted ceilings and fresh paint throughout, plus a remodelled kitchen with an island that opens to the eating area. The main floor has three bedrooms, including an oversized primary with cheater access to the updated 4pc bath. Downstairs, the finished basement adds a fourth bedroom, a den, and a family room with a gas fireplace, plus another 4pc bath and laundry. Recent updates include a new roof (2023), energy-efficient furnace and central air (2020), and a new sundeck out back. The insulated 2-car garage has heat and A/C via mini-split, so it's usable year-round. Outside, there's a patio and firepit for cool evenings. The lot is 70.32 x irregular, giving you space to spread out. You'll be minutes from Viewpointe Estate Winery and about 6 km to Colio, with Harrow District High School 5.2 km away. Priced at $599,900, it's slightly below the area's median of $612,400. Just note the whirlpool tub hasn't been used and may not work. Big value for a home that's basically move-in ready.
