About this home

Set high above beautiful Shawnigan Lake, 1691 Strathcona Heights is the kind of property that makes you slow down, take a breath, and imagine a different pace of life. Set on 5 private acres with sweeping west-facing lake and mountain views, this is a rare opportunity to own space, privacy, and scenery in one of Shawnigan Lake’s most loved communities. The home is positioned perfectly on a sunny natural slope, capturing unforgettable sunsets from the expansive view deck. Whether you are soaking in the hot tub at the end of the day, hosting friends for summer dinners, or enjoying a quiet morning coffee above the trees, the setting is truly special. Inside, the 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom layout offers comfortable family living with generous gathering spaces, a bright main living area, and room for everyone to spread out. The home has a warm, relaxed West Coast feel, with large windows that pull the outdoors in and remind you exactly why people dream of living here. The property also features a charming bunkie with loft bed, perfect for guests, teens, a studio, office, creative escape, or cozy retreat space. With 5 acres to enjoy, there is room to garden, explore, play, unwind, and create the lifestyle you have been looking for. Just minutes from Shawnigan Lake Village, Baldy Mountain trails, local shops, cafés, schools, and lake access, this location offers the best of both worlds: peaceful acreage living without feeling removed from community and convenience. Acreage with lake views, privacy, usable lifestyle space, and this much potential is increasingly hard to find. 1691 Strathcona Heights is more than a home — it is a place to gather, grow, breathe, and build lasting memories in one of Vancouver Island’s most treasured lake communities. Come see the view, feel the setting, and understand why this property is worth experiencing in person. (id:65179)
