2680 Sunny Glades Lane, Shawnigan Lake

Does life get any sunnier or gladdier than this?! Your charming three-bed, two-bath home stands on a quarter-acre of forested property. (Aerial and garden photos show the lot’s mature evergreens and rhododendrons, a level backyard with a built-in firepit and circular seating area, a small outbuilding/shed, and a gravel/stone path leading to the home.) Only four houses share peaceful Sunny Glades Lane, just a short walk from Worthington Road Community Park’s trails, beach access, and playground. The house epitomizes west coast coziness. Its ingenious layout provides options for a rec room, office space, and flexible loft area. (Interior shots reveal an open loft/landing with white-painted railings overlooking the living area and a versatile lower-level room currently used as a home office/rec space with built-in shelving and desk/storage.) Other features include overheight ceilings; Juliet patios for the upper bedrooms; wraparound porch with french doors; stylish, contemporary kitchen; wood-burning fireplace with stone surround; and spacious, level backyard with firepit and mature trees. (The living area displays exposed dark wood beams, skylights, warm hardwood flooring, and a teal accent wall that contrasts with light trim; the kitchen area shows white cabinetry and a stainless refrigerator, while the main bathroom features a modern black vanity with a vessel sink, round mirror, and tiled shower wall.) The north end of Shawnigan Lake gives you a rugged, wilderness experience but with restaurants, grocery stores, and leisure activities within a short drive. With that mix of privacy and convenience, plus major infrastructure projects on the way, Vancouver Island’s “lake country” is set to see strong growth in the years ahead. (id:1945)
